After i milled the 4 x 12 beams and 1 x 6 in to fit all the multiple angles i set the beams in thin set and bondo then used about 1.5 gallons of polyester resin on each beam and 2-3 layers of Biaxel glass.
The beams will be the primary supports for the stern davits one on each corner and my primary deck supports for my 3/16 diamond plate deck.
I'm going to finish glassing in the ends of the beams them the rest of the deck supports will be bare wood no glass screwed in.
Going to run a 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 ledger down the sides of the 4 x 12 beams 1.5 inches down from the top of the beams and run 2 x 8, 10, or 12 possibly 2 x 14 flat across the fuel tank to the other beam to mount the deck to.
I'm leaving the exhaust where it is or was and no deck storage just access.
I'm going to install the davits through the railing mounted in the top of the beams at the stern and run a support from the davit under the railing towards the motor on a angle to the other end of the beam and fasten it to the beam.
Hopefully the beams will be secure supporting the davits and deck and the railing will keep the davit stable and the angle support will keep most of the the pressure off the transom.
Most fish will be a few hundred pounds possibly 1000# max but the water weight and swell surge creates a lot of pressure.
Hopefully my design will do the job.
The davits were and are my primary focus on this build.
I'm aware of the latex conflict with the thin set and polyester resin, i did a test on the existing glass and it bonded good enough for a filler.
When i lift fish the scuppers will be swamped any suggestions on how to open and close them securely.
