Thanks Phil,

I'm starting to lean toward a 14'er with at least 48" of bottom width. I've got a couple questions regarding your deck design:

At the back edge of the front deck, there is a sunken "step" in the middle. I presume this is where the middle bench is. Why did you maintain the full deck height at the sides over the middle bench?

I suspect you have some storage, livewell, or something under the deck. Do you have any photos showing this?

When you take a friend out, and you're going to go flying down the lake with the gas engine, where does your buddy sit?

Thanks,

Pete
