the 'copy-catting" continues, thanks again to all for the great information and pictures to follow.
couple of questions.
1. can I use 1/2 inch plywood for the deck some have used it and other not. Is it a matter of opinion.
2. I am obviously raising the deck and am going to attach to existing gunnels. If they are supported and glassed in do I need to worry about flex? could I back fill with foam? Here is where I am at now. Weather has been wet so I couldn't start on transom. Hopefully tomorrow
