[QUOTE="KevinWI, post: 236829, member: 7422"] I'm doing similar to mine but mine will be a fishing/duck hunting boat. Extending the front deck 18" for storage...will be for decoys in the fall and fishing stuff in the spring/summer. Livewell will also be storage area in the fall. Don't really need a large hatch for decoys if you are putting them in a couple at a time...but for a whole bag, then yeah a bigger hatch is warranted. I'm going with two smaller hatches at the front. leaving the front existing deck insulation as is for flotation. Good luck on your build. P.S. I'm going with 1/2" (seemed to be consensus on many boat forums) CDX exterior grade (exterior glue) on the deck treated with poly resin to waterproof then carpeted. [/QUOTE]
