I just built a deck for my flounder gigging boat. I used aluminum scaffold planks (7ftx19"). They are perfect for this application since they are designed to be load-bearing, they do not need any support in the middle, and they're not heavy. It's your decking and support structure all in one.

Really good lighting

That weight up front can make for a real scary ride in real rough chop or in the wake of a barge.

Killer job on all the build series. Never realized how how much work really goes into making a series until I started my own. Just a thought with out a light rail, I've run without light rails and man do they find a way to snag on every single thing possible.

I would not recommend going to a stainless prop as it will transfer the shock of hitting something to the drive line. Aluminum props are made to take damage.

I look forward to watching your construction videos. I wondered how much that deck weighed. You built it tough but with tough comes weight :) Good luck

Can't wait to see the build after you extended the deck out are you going back with light rails or you mounting them to the gunnels

BOAT is not a word. It’s an acronym Break out another thousand. I know all too well. I live on a river and I have 6 of them. 😢😢😢

A boat is a hole in the water surrounded by aluminum into which you are constantly pouring in work,time,money……
