[QUOTE="Guy, post: 73360, member: 943"] I have a tracker 1436 and thought I would share an easy way to make a front deck template. I am charging my camera batteries and will post some pictures later. Anyway...I bought my wife a new ice box and told the delivery guys that I wanted the box. They thought that this was kind of strange since they take it out of the box before they deliver it. I cut the box down one of the seams and spread it out over the top of my boat. I taped it down so it wouldn't move and traced the outer contour of the boat all the way around from underneath.. Once I cut it out, I cut the templete in half down the center. Since the boat has the same shape, just narrower as you go down, I overlaped the two pieces until it fit the inter contour of the boat. Then, I tapped the two pieces back together in the middle. It worked like a champ. For those who are not going to buy their wives an ice box. You could probably go to any appliance store and ask them for the box. Anyway...I hope this helps some one out. I will post pictures later. Guy 8) [/QUOTE]
