[QUOTE="Howard, post: 270205, member: 3395"] Really like your boat, similar to mine. I would frame everything with aluminum and absolutely use aluminum for your floor. If push came to shove use plywood coated with spur urethane for some of your top decking. Build it and install wood only where if it goes bad you will be able to pop it out and replace it easily. I used some in my mod, I keep my boat in the garage and fish in the rain only about twice a year. For a duck hunter I would imagine water will not be your friend if using too much wood. I also would not cut holes in my ribs. [-X Use marine grade wire that is water and oil resistant and you should be fine. :) [/QUOTE]
