While working out of state, my good fishing buddy came by and added some goodies to the boat. I was looking for more "work area" on the boat while fishing. Something that would be able to get worm and fish slime covered, but easy to clean.

We used some material from a garage a door and built a deck or table 16.5" by 32" on the transom.
The material is made of recylced plastic and is outdoor grade

Thanks. I gained over 20 inches of deck soace. But main reason was able to net fish.

In 2009 i fished off an identical starcraft. It was a pain netting fish. This new transom should make it way easier to net fish.

12 26 2015 - Almost 1 year from the start of the project - We launched. Some items worked well, some items need tweaking. The family showed up and we had a successful launch

Family came down to Lake to help with the boat launch. Pretty smooth except:
forgot bumpers and mooring rope
disconnect for main battery would not pass current - had to bypass it on the lake

What they said :)

Looks good floating I'm sure the year's worth of work will be well worth the next many year's usage.

Did ya get any fishing in or just a boat ride?
