[QUOTE="CompleteFisherman, post: 260402, member: 8620"] Hey Everyone, I really love this website, it has given me so many ideas for different conversions. I am going to start my first conversion on my Lowe 1236 and would love to hear your guys input on my design and how it could be improved. My plan for the boat is to start by placing a front deck on. I might later add onto it with more storage in the back later on (can't have a livewell due to living in BC :( ) as well as removable flooring. Basically, I want this deck to be removable (because I load the boat onto the roof of my truck) and also very stable. From the design, I have two small storage compartments for tackle and tools and maybe a large one in front of the middle seat for life jackets. I cannot get my hands on marine carpet so I will have to use outdoor carpet. Also, for securing the wood into a frame, would metal brackets be better or just nails and screws and does my design look structurally sound. Thanks everyone, CompleteFisherman [/QUOTE]
