Anyone out there have any tips for either building or purchasing an extended deck for a 1990 Stratos 201? Funds are low but having a big deck on my boat is high on my list. Is it best to have a machinist build some type of aluminum platform with some sort of mounting brackets? I could go the wood route, but that seems like it would add more weight to an already heavy boat. I plan on doing my own carpet this winter and will carpet the deck at that time. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
