[QUOTE="ShipwreckStew, post: 311550, member: 10877"] I've taken the console and the floor out and thrown out all of the old flotation foam. After 15 years of sitting in a barn, the mice had done some work on it... I got new floor boards and have cut, beveled the sides for a better fit and sanded them. All they need is to be painted/sealed. I got gray patio paint and a non skid sand additive. I am going to paint both sides of the boards to seal them, then I am going to add the non skid sand and apply that once the floor is in the boat. My hope is that coating it again when its in the boat will hide the seams between the boards, making it look like one piece and with half of the paint gone, the sand to paint ratio will provide more grit.
