    The edge of the tread plate is a 40mm fold that combined with the keelson that it will be plugwelded to will hopefully provide more than enough longitutdinal hull stiffness,another sealed chamber of reserve boyancy,something to lock your feet into when pulling in a net/long line/ 20pound plus snapper.







    I am not sure I like the line of the floor relative to how I think it will sit at rest and on the plane and may taper the press forad so the floor in the bow ends up a little lower and narrower.
    It certainly does not need more reserve boyancy.

    Many people have said the same but it does not fit the design brief at all, how will I fit the 4 wheeler in there if it has a bloody great engine and jet unit there?.

    It looks big in the pics but it is only 11 foot long remember.....it is wide tho.
