Abstract
A decking system for a boat includes a deck substructure composed of aluminum cross members attachable on pontoons of the boat, and elongated aluminum deck planks being attachable to the cross members of the deck substructure in side-by-side relation to one another and thereabove to provide a deck platform upon the deck substructure. The planks include a pair of planks at outer sides of the deck platform and a plurality of middle planks therebetween. Each outer side and middle plank has a main platform-forming portion with a pair of opposite longitudinal edges thereon and plank-supporting rail and runner portions depending adjacent the edges of the platform-forming portion. Tongue and chennel portions are defined along the respective edges to provide mating between adjacent ones of the planks. Each rail portion has a flange disposed outwardly of one edge of the platform-forming portion and exposed from thereabove such that the middle planks are assemblable together one at a time progressing from one side of the deck substructure to the other side thereof alternately with attachment of the middle planks via the flanges to the deck substructure from above the substructure.
