I need 12' to simplify things but that doesn't look like a problem. I
was thinking about steel or fiberglass but PVC may be lighter. This
looks like a possibility too. Clear would allow me to see the
critters under there. We have squirrels making a nest in our gas
grill (hasn't been used in years) now. I wouldn't want them under
there.

Pvc can be heavy, could try Polycarbonate Twinwall if you want some
what clear.

Yikes! That's some expensive stuff! More than $4000 for the 12x16
deck.

The stuff I saw is here, not quite 4 grand either

That price at Lowes is ludicrous. That has to be for a case. Home
Depot has the same product for $16.64

Note that it comes in other colors.

That's not twinwall though. HD has twinwall as well

That's more like it - $250 plus whatever I need to hang it. Not sure
how to do it under a deck, though. My advantage is that it'll never
hold any weight. It'll be pretty protected from wind too.
