It looks nice,good job. I would pull the center platform and set up a outrigger on each side using 3-4" PVC filled with spray foam and capped. This will add to you bouyance as well give you stability when shooting and hauling in those monster fish. Acturally a small/ and cheap 400 watt generator and two 75 HPS on each side and you would be set.
