riveted or welded ?
flatbottom or v ?
steering type? - console(if so center or side mount), stick or standard
livewell ? - if you dont have a built in, do you have any home made set-ups i should consider.
decks ? - do they make that much of a difference, (again) any home made decks.
carpeting ? - whats the purpose, heat? sound? or just a creature comfort?
