Here is the J16 I am working on for my son. Most any poling platform is going to mount to a raised deck, gunnel, or transom. I cant imaging you would ever mount to the floor deck. That is where the water intrusion issue is. Most of the decks are either wood or a foam core, either of which could be sealed.
The platform is just sitting there now to layout for backing plates, prior to glassing down the deck.
