Todd, That is what I did with my Tred Avon. It is not difficult at all, in fact the strip part went quite easily with the extra forms. I'll have this boat at R2K, too. I wanted to bring the new Spring Run but it's not quite ready yet and my son will be along for the ride, so we'll get some use out of the double.

: Todd,

: Try putting deck beams in about every foot. Make them out of something
: lightweight like western red cedar and you could leave them in for extra
: strength.
