205 Owners Help Please

[coz]

So I need to make a new sunpad for my 98 205, can anyone feel the thickness of the wood for the sunpad and let me know what there's is? I'm thinking 1/2-3/4"

Thanks

Its not wood. It is 1/2" HDPE.

For that piece, given its location, I would definitely make the base out of HDPE as opposed to wood.

Where is the HDPE? All I see is foam and wood...

Did your boat not have a pad before?

That's the template I cut out this morning and I just cut the hdpe, and yes I had a pad up until last weekend heading to the river on the I-10 around Vicksburg.
