Convincor Question

Jimway

Well-known member
Is one able to walk out onto the front of the hull without damaging it on a Convincor? I'm assuming that you can but would like to hear. On the Playmate, I can step out on the front and even soak up some sun laying out there. I certainly wouldn't jump up and down out there but have found it really strong which I suspect is typical for a Checkmate.
 
I do it quite frequently - don't know if I "should". Don't notice any deflection so I assume it is fine.
However, I wouldn't really consider it "walking" - more like crawling/butt scootching (is that a word?)
 
I weigh 235lbs and walk out on mine all the time. That's where I tie off my anchor 99% of the time. Just be careful after a fresh wax though. I can tell you from experience the deck is strong enough to withstand a fall from a full grown man!!
