? Well my boat doesn't flex at all in a seaway at least that I can feel 
#296 , deck is thrubolted, rig tensioned the same (I used brians #'s 
too), new mast beam etc. maybe your deck is riveted and is loose.  I 
haven't noticed any movement I've had it rail down beating into a fairly 
heavy sea taking alot of water down the weather side deck over the bow 
and scooping up some in my 150% UK tape drive. Only vibration I felt was 
my heart going into high misfire and my white knuckles squeezing the 
pitch out of the teak tiller..
