    I'm talking about someone who can remove the deck. Remove the liner and get the wet foam out. Then put it all back together and re gel the entire boat in different colors.

    I ran a 15" Rapid jack on mine with the crossflow. That motor weighed about 375lbs though, Might be worth a try if you can find one for sale cheap somewhere.
