Default A couple more thoughts based on our experience

We love our aluminum raft with cedar decking, BUT...as cedar ages, it can produce tiny little splinters. Much better than the enormous, jagged splinters from pressure treated, but still. We talked to Center Harbor Dock and Pier about converting to composite or PVC. Turns out that very expensive structural modifications to the aluminum frame would be required, due to the heavier weight. So if you're getting a new aluminum-framed raft, make the wood vs. composite decision up front!
