Decking a Tsunami

Good day to all
New to the board and thought I would share a couple of pic's of my new river ride. She is a welded modified 14' with 50" flat bottom which will be sporting a 40 hp jet.

I will be decking the front from the second bench forward and only as high as the bench seat and then just a 13" pedistal topped off with a soft seat.
Other than the deck about the only thing I would like to add is a good anchor launch which could be dropped via a cable and controled by a winch at the back of the boat.

If anyone out there has a great homemade anchor and anchor setup that they would like to share ( river runs 12mph) it would be greatly appreciated.

That's a tank. Was that custom built? Never heard of the brand, though that doesn't mean anything, lol.

The only thing I did find out was (with the help from a member) it was built by a company that was 20 miles from me which is no longer in bussiness. They were only in bussiness for 2 years.

It has a thick bottom which runs half way up the side and then goes to a lighter gauge, I believe it is 1/8. I have been thinking of ways I could weigh the boat alone to get a base line prior to decking it.
Does anyone have a link to some info on a DIY plastic bottom protector.
