Looks like someone else reserved my name (Kevin (FL), at least that's what YTMAG says....waiting to hear back from the site to see what's up... Grazer, I've never seen decking on a gooseneck run transversely, but maybe the deck support framing on your trailer runs longitudinally or fore and aft. Decking should run perpendicular to the framing that supports it. Most goosenecks are built with two main longitudinal girders (I-beams, or H-beams) and then transverse frames (channels or angles) are welded to the main frame for local support of the decking. You're pretty much stuck with however the deck support structure is arranged on your trailer. I like fore and aft decking myself because it contributes somewhat to the bending resistance of the trailer--that is as long as the boards are 16' or longer and the butt seams are not in the center of the trailer. But like I said, you need to re-deck in accordance with the trailer's design.
