Sounds like a lot of effort for marginal increase in object visability Brett? If you can see the SCP, its debatable if there is a lot of benefit unless its boosting your northern horizon. You'd rarely want to image anything lower than 40-45 degrees high off the horizon anyway, particularly from the 'burbs.

If its a serious longterm plan to go with a pier the deck makes more sense, but investing the effort in a small roll-off observatory might pay more dividends? How big a deck are you planning?
