[QUOTE="russ010, post: 69210, member: 677"] If you can go the aluminum route - take your time and you'll be fine with it. I've fished with bassboy in his boat, and it's not loud at all - so you can take that off your con list. As far as attaching it, you can just use rivets... talk to bassboy - he can give you all the websites to visit for rivets and all that stuff, and give you instructions on how to attach it a lot better than I can. I can tell you that there is a big difference in weight though with wood as opposed to aluminium. Are you planning on using aluminum as your decking as well?? That will really be your weight saver.
