Absolutely ! Can you explain the process you use for measuring and cutting? I'm getting ready to start cutting my floors and yours seems to fit perfect. Thanks
 
What thickness aluminum sheet did you use for the floor and what are did you use to cut it?
Looking great!

I used a standard measuring tape and lots of back and fourth work to get the rib measurments. I got lucky that the taper towards the bow started at the last 2 feet. The aluminum is 1/8" thickness. I used an everyday jigsaw to make all the cuts. I have some more pics I'll post later. I fabricated a raised trolling motor mount last night.

Thanks for all the complements!
 
Trolling motor mount fabricated and driver seat painted.

This should help you make up your mind on the LED idea. I love em!

You might find that Red LEDs at night are not as harsh on your eyes over time.

I got a 12 inch strip on each side in the front, and one on each side in the back. Mine are blue also. Love how they're low-profile and will stick anywhere to the boat.
 
Looking good.
I went with LED Pro Boat kit. I have several sets of white and red LED ont eh deck. red for safety and all the time, white for working lights.
