[QUOTE="rebeldlt1, post: 24317, member: 332"] :D starting a deck conversion on a Polarkraft 1436. It has a livewell in the center seat.

These are the questions - front part of boat is higher than seat with livewell where I would extend deck to - does it matter if the deck slopes or not? Also, how do you recommend supporting the deck?
