[QUOTE="oakchas, post: 421516, member: 18746"] Okay. Support ribs cut. They will be screwed (lag bolts) to the aluminum ribs. The 1/2 inch decking will sit on top of these. Aluminum angle will be screwed through the carpet and deck into the ends of the wooden support ribs. [img]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160910/0e20ac600b661b5b67d866b779a39d18.jpg[/img] There will be some flotation glued to the bottom of the decking between the support ribs. There will be some more flotation in the side lockers, as well as under the fore and mid (casting) decks. It's starting to progress! I'm weighing the low deck and the ribs, to help calculate flotation required for regulation compliance. Everything else so far has been weighed, and calculated in a spreadsheet. [/QUOTE]
