The balsa in your platform is there to give it some structural integrity. Composite lumber has zero structural integrity. Have them use marine plywood, not the composite.

Sounds like a fair solution. Hope it works out for you.

Congrats! On the bow thrusters, I'm still new to the boating world, but with two engines (Aft Cabin 3607) I can literally turn 180 degrees on a dime and use the props to shuffle the boat sideways. I've been travelling the Loop since April and never had a problem sliding in to places. Of course I've never tried using bow thrusters - you can't miss what you haven't experienced :-)
