Clinton thats something I've done on a 12' and a 16' john boat. By deck you mean a floor in which to put a pedestal seat or a raised platform for the pedestal. They both have there advantages and disadvantages.  

Visit tinboats.net - they have an entire section on decking boats like that.

thanks just got off work and was reading this thanks 2lb.,david,and Dick, david tinboats is a great site thank you. its my first boat and i was wanting to have the trolling motor up front to make it like a little bass boat but i dont know. but puting a deck on a 46" beam jon boat is like put a deck on a canoe is what my dad said lol but i might try it .
