Yes Tartuffe I am building what I call an outrigger bracket. I am buiding my normal stringer setup, but in the back, there will be sister stringers that extend out the back 30" and marry up to the main stringers for 66". The stringers extending out the transom will be the sides of my bracket. So I add a bottom, top, and figure out a mounting pad across the back. Then I have a flotation bracket. I am still glassing it off to the transom to spread weight. However wide the main stringers are will be my bracket width. Should provide enough flotation for my plan of twins in the future. But what I am truly gaining is 2' of back deck that was taken by the splashwell. That is what really has me excited.
