Boat slip during bunker replacement

[Tin-Can]

The Trex I bought is thicker than the decking material. It is a "real" 2 x 4 size, and was difficult to find. Lowes and Home Depot had the decking stuff that is about 5.5" wide by about 3/4" thick with the contours on one side that allow air to pass between the bottom of the decking and the support joists they are screwed to. That is too thin over an 8 to 10 foot span on a boat trailer that only has support brackets at each end unless you sister 3 or 4 layers of trex decking together, and that is way more expensive than I wanted to pay. I went to Burton Lumber off of Gordon in Layton. They had some 2 x 4 solid Trex timbers 20 feet long. They charged me $20.00 for one of them and even cut it in half for me so it would load in my truck. Should last several years more than even the pressure treated 2 x 6 I used last year. Course, my boat isn't real heavy, and the bunks are holding up quite well. If you have a longer boat & trailer and can support the trex on each end as well as near the middle, I think it will work quite nice.
