    Yes - we custom made a stainless piece for support, then overlaid it with Ipe deck board.

    The decking board not stiff enough on its own?

    Correct. No decking lumber would stay ridged at the distance between posts.

    In my case, I used pressure treated lumber for the top rail to match the deck. However, I also used wood posts with metal supports.

    Looks nice. With your shorter spans and thicker decking it will probably be fine.
