Any electricians?
Yeah you'll need a 3 way switch. You can get one at your auto parts store and get one. Very simple to hook up. Just know what wire has current going from it and know which one the current is going through

Don't shoot me: Jon 1432 adding stability
Yes it get's more stable to a certain point. But under my deck is flotation foam which supports the extra weight. What I'm trying to say is you need to try to keep your lowest center of gravity when you built the sunk deck when at the same time it is adding stabilty. I can give you some pics if you want

Don't shoot me: Jon 1432 adding stability
I built a sunk-in deck and floors and transom cover on my 1432 and it is VERY stabls. Not as stable as a 1436 but a whole lot more stable than when it was just me and some paddles in the boat.

polyurethane problem
Well looks like you migth have messed up. Take the staples off the back, assuming you put staples, and see if the glue gives a little bit. If it does come off, sand the glue off good and put some poly on there and you should be just fine.

ever heard of?
Never heard of it, but if you decide to buy it inspect it VERY closely because sometimes plastic don't like the elements which means if you hit a stump at the slowest speed it might break the plastic. If you see what i'm saying

polyurethane problem
See if you can take the carpet off without damaging the carpet. If you can't then it depands on how much glue you put on under the carpet wether or not it will keep water out of the wood. If anything you could put ALOT of scotch guard on it. Not sure if the scotch guard will work but it's a start

Fishingbud... I got a question for you

Fishingbud... I got a question for you
Thank you VERY much! I thought i would have to use a heat gun or blow dryer and use it. But if i form it and don't get it glued down but for a couple more days, will the carpet flatten out again?
