Great Jet, thanks for the info. I need to find out if that is legal here or not. My first thought is that is not but I want to find out for sure because I would love to have a sundeck. And when I say "I would love it", I mean that my soon to be wife would love it. That is her only complaint with the Comp. Yes, I said soon to be. We are getting married the day after Christmas. I know it's a big plunge but I met her on the lake and she wants nothing more on a nice day than to be on the boat, so it must be meant to be.

just remember your tsm6 will never yell at you. lol Goodluck man.
-
Haha! Very true. Thanks a lot. I gotta get some pictures of the boat on here also so yall can give some advice on what to do next. It's a pretty sleek boat already. Black and off white(or bone color). I removed the original striped decals and put on simple black Supra decals.
-
Yeah. I love black. Show us your boat man.
-
I will work on getting it on here tonight for sure.

Jet, could your deck not be modded to flip back on itself? A hinge in the middle? That would allow it to be folded back for rear seated people, and flipped over for the deck and to provide seating above the sack in the floor.
-
Yes.. My back half is based on the 07' Mastercraft X-7 direct drive. It had a rear hatch in the rear for storage and then a rear seat for 3-4 people in front of the small storage area. You could pull the bottom seat cushion out and put it on top so you had storage underneath for equipment and fat sacs. After seeing that I knew my seat was going bad anyway from people standing on it, throwing heavy fat sacs on it and Laura didn't have a place to lay out..and I really like watching her lay out. lol. So I did one better and made mine the same but made it larger and hinged. Just like in your boat people always sit on the rear pad and put there feet in the seat and the same with mine. When my sac is full and the deck is top is down, people just sit on it and put there feet on the floor..same but different. so seat not really needed. I still havent put the piano hinge and gas shocks on it yet Im thinking I might make it 2"-4" larger for another 100 lbs in there. but I do see your idea, mine is just a little diff. Any other ideas out there..Im not afraid to copy someone with a better one. lol

It's looking good. Glad to see you got a major step completed.

Another progress report. I've spent more time than I anticipated finishing a lot of small projects. I adjusted the removable floor sections, cleaned several rats nests of wires around the engine, installed the bilge pump and float switch, installed a new thermostat, temp sending unit, new water separating filter, new hoses and clamps, painted rear vents, buffed interior gel coat and patched holes from old bimini hardware. I've got to sand the gelcoat patches and do a little more buffing and I think I'll be ready to install carpet. I'm hoping to have some time over the holiday break to hit it hard. We'll see what takes precedence, my boat project or the wife's to-do list.
