ABSTRACT:
The unitary deck insert (10) includes two longitudinal plank braces (14,16) which extend the entire length of the deck insert (10), and two beam members (20,22) which extend laterally across the deck insert. A portion of the respective lengths of the longitudinal planks (14, 16) and the beam members (20, 22) define an open cockpit area for the deck insert (10). Deck planks (13) extend outboard of plank braces (14, 16) as well as between the plank braces (14, 16) at the fore and aft ends of the deck insert (10), thereby defining the deck itself. The boundary edge of the deck insert (10) is notched to mate with the top edge of the hull (12).
