A lot of the earlier Ranger owners would make an edge laminated plywood (two sheets epoxied together to make the edges thicker) insert for their boats and cover it with carpet to extend the deck. Seems pretty simple to me if you dont mind drilling some holes to bolt on some support brackets. Ill ask around and see if any of the local guys still have one setup that way. If they do Ill see if I can snap a picture.–Bob La Londe Forums, Free Lures, Product Reviewswww.YumaBassMan.com CNC Molds N Stuffwww.CNCMOLDS.com
