Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | That is exactly the differnece. It's not just a 'deck', however. it's a built in fiberglass storage box that doubles as a deck extension making the rear deck huge while mirroring the interior so it looks like it was built into the rig. The lids are gull wing designed. The deck bolts in, using fasteners that are laminated into every V hull Tuffy builds. It takes less than 5 minutes to remove the module or install it. |

So if the rear deck module is removed is the floorplan the same as the Osprey ie. seatbases and pump access still in the same places? Just wondering because for trolling with 3 ppl in the boat or taking the wife/kids for a ride on the river I'd probably remove the deck module. Do both versions come with 4 seats?

Location: Green Bay, WI | Can the deck module be purchased and bolted to an existing Osprey? |

| If the Osprey is a 2005 or 2006 model, yes. Four seats standard, but with the rear deck it goes to three places in the rear. |
