Decking a 10' Jon
Lol but what wilson is not saying is that his boat is freakin wide at the bottom, if i remember right. And being as the bottom of your boat is 32 inches i wouldn't even squat down on the storage compartment if you made it. As long as you are not standing on the deck or anything i say go for it. But make it light, REALLY light.

first timer
Get you a new 1448 tracker grizzly. Those things are awesome. O would get one but i'm just gonna settle with the 1448 war eagle, about 200 dollars difference
-
Which is more stable for a deck?
I would recommend the flat bottom jon. Because your only going to be in small lakes you shouldn't be blown around too much and i THINK it woud be easier to mod a flat bottom

Don't shoot me: Jon 1432 adding stability
I totally know what your saying because i can't afford a bigger boat(being as i;m only 17) but what i'm saying is that you don't want your seats any higher than the bench seats. Like on my boat the pedestal is only about 3 inches higher than the bench and on the back i have a simple seat base and seat pin set up. Try what i did and i promise you will feel more stable
-
boat seats
Well almost all boat seats sit the same in my opinion. And yes they are uncomfortable. If i were you iw ould go to BPS myself and feel of all the seats and get what you think would work
-
Don't shoot me: Jon 1432 adding stability
Well i can tell you one of the reasons your feeling unstable, because of the front pedistal, it is way too tall. Go get a shorter one and you should ne fine without the things on the side
