: Do you want to display the deck, or the hull, or the side of the

I would probably mount it on its side, against the wall like the post referenced earlier. The room has a blank wall that a 14-16 ft boat would fit nicely. I had not thought of earthquakes, but a sturdy mount is in order - even in Georgia.
