silent thunder repairs
 
Does anyone know what thickness plywood they used in the back of the platform, there wasn't enough left of the one i took off to make any measurements. completely rotted out. never having seen an intact one i have no idea what was there. any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Think about leaving it off, sounds like there is many advantages without it

What boat? the deck off a 272 is a little different that the 311, I have a 311 deck in near perfect condition that I will not be using... wanna buy it?

ran it this past year without the platform, got lucky a few times with
warnings for noise decibles. wont be as lucky again now that they know the boat, a couple of extra ponies wont be worth the tickets.
I weighed my options and putting it back on is the best one at the moment.

thanks

I need to have a platform and cant afford the tickets that will certainly be forthcoming without it.

idk where you run but that is lame...i am highly doubtful that ill have a problem. there are guys with 700's and 800's supercharged that have no problems...
