[QUOTE="ober51, post: 92573, member: 1354"] Even if you do have the money for treated lumber, don't use it. Treated wood has traces of copper in its construction and will corrode with aluminum quickly if exposed. Just use regular wood, with some quality water sealer or spar varnish, it will look and behave as well, and cost less. You don't want corrosion, no fun there. As for ideas, that's the great thing about this site, visit the conversion forum, you will spend days on just perusing the threads. Plus, we can't tell you what to do with the plan, that's the fun of it - build your own! We can help with issues that arise, or suggestions about wiring, lights, etc. THe plan depends on the build of your boat, and your imagination. [/QUOTE]
