[QUOTE="bulldog, post: 178062, member: 4592"] Here is a picture of the console and the rear of the new deck. I just put the finishing touches on the sides and back of the deck tonight. I'm trying to make it look as clean as possible. My boat has a lot of digs and dents so everything I am building I am trying to make look clean I guess to make up for that. You can see the exposed aluminum cross members. This is a pretty big stretch to not bend for 1" box tubing so I used 1.25" box tubing with 1/8" walls on the bottom and a 1" on the top. It does not flex at all even with a 235+ pound man stepping on it. All that is left to do in this picture is to mount the Hot Foot. If you don't have a Hot Foot in your boat, you are missing out. I have heard both sides of the argument and I have owned boats with and without and IMO a Hot Foot is the way to go and I will never own another boat with a console without one. [/QUOTE]
