Removable Light Weight Deck - Jon boat to bass boat

Article on my website - https://www.jtgatoring.com/2017-aluma...
This is the deck I have on my jon boat. The deck is made out of 1x2 1x3 and 1/2 inch plywood. I thought I would post this because I see so many people making a deck with 2x4's that just seems over kill and extremely heavy. This deck is removable by 4 bolts and easy enough to lift out by yourself. The wood I used to make my deck with was just average grade wood. It was not pressure treated or even cabinet grade. I sealed it with outdoor paint. The trolling motor mound was made of 3/4 inch plywood doubled up and glued and screwed together. I will have a link to the riv nuts/ nut serts below.
