I made my own deck extension for my 96 Eyra out of 3/4″ plywood, wrapped it in fiberglass and added same grade carpet from BC. Then bought a battery box “strap” at WalMart and applied the snaps from the snap kit Ive had for a couple of years.When I had my 97 PII, I had ordered the deck from BC and it came with straps. If it was good enough then, I figured it would be fine for this one!Keep us posted on how it looks.96 Eyra/12 Mercury 175 Pro XS with 2015 single axle trailer2017 Victory Gunner
