Default poling platform on a 20sf?

as some of you know I have been restoring a 20 sf. I have a poling platform that I got my hands on for pratically nothing. my question is how many 20sf have you seen with poling platforms on them? I am just wondering if the boat could be to heavy to try to push around or not.

Never seen one with a platform but my 18' poles quite easily as long as there is NO wind. It's actually a very quiet hull.

Please don't do that, your boat is going to be so pretty without one....

Just my two cents.

About the only use I can think of for it would be to cast from. You might be able to pole for a hundred yards or so, but with any wind not shooting straight down your bow, it'd be a beast to keep straight.

I wouldn't think of a 20 as a poling skiff?
