Re: deck extension
jrc,<br />Am not sure on your hull, if there are any lips or ridges to which you could make a template, then simply cut a piece of 5/8 or 3/4" thick plywood, to fitthe opening. If not, you can add these, by using some 1/2" x 1 1/2" strips, or similare material, that would forma lip for the board to rest on.<br /><br />Once you get the board approximately shaped, make it just enough smaller to allow you to wrap the whole thing with some indoor/outdoor carpeting, and "voila", you have a platform that you can remove, if needed...<br /><br />Will be away for a bit, as I'm off in the morning for a 12 day cruise/fishing trip to Lake Powell... But if you want to reply, I'll be checking in, when I get back and see if I can't get you some pic's of what I did to my Mako, which had NO means of supporting any raised flooring, until I added the strips I referred to...<br /><br />Good Luck, Obiwan
