Sea Ark 1652 Build

The only thing to remember about deck restore is it absolutely does not work on aluminum according to the manufacturer. So while it works well on wood, it does NOT work on aluminum decking. In the case of this build, where you're using wood for decking, you're good to go.

Yeah, that's what I read. I just did not want carpet! Looks good though!

Really like your boat, similar to mine. I would frame everything with aluminum and absolutely use aluminum for your floor. ...For a duck hunter I would imagine water will not be your friend if using too much wood...

I'm the same way. It looks like you already went with the wood, but a lot of the duck boat builds around hear go with aluminum and hydroturf over wood and carpet.

Got a lot more done, almost finished. Still need to fab the remaining battery box, the floor is in and steering counsel is in. All electrical is in functioning order, just need to pretty it all up and tuck it away. Need to put the trolling motor back on and mount the front seat. The decking turned out great! Very happy with it.
