[QUOTE="FormerParatrooper, post: 418146, member: 21034"] I am getting ready to work on making the floor. I want a flat surface of course, and do not want to add a lot of weight. Some ideas I have is to use 1/4 inch thick plastic sheets supported by aluminum unistrut pieces, or to use 11/32 plywood supported by 1 3/4 x 1 3/4 laminate wood sticks. Wood of course will be treated with old timers. While doing the floor will also put a "deck" from front bench seat to bow with a door to access the battery. No plans to use the "deck" for standing, just as a place to keep battery protected and mount trolling motor. Has anyone tried the plastic method? Are there better ideas to keep weight down? [/QUOTE]
