[QUOTE="Centrarchidae, post: 337669, member: 12622"] To seal the lower floor, I think putting flashing around the edges of the floor would be your best bet. You could fab something with some thin aluminum sheet and caulk between the side of the boat and the flashing and then between the flashing and the floor piece. Even better might be to attach the flashing with adhesive that could also act as a sealant as well. I guess it depends if you want to be able to remove that section of floor for any reason in the future though. If you need to be able to remove the floor, you might be able to get some thick soft gasket material and fit it around the floor to form a seal. I've used some really soft rubber hose as gasket material on a different project and it worked quite well. [/QUOTE]
