    Flooring

    I am new to the site and was looking to put a floor in my 1987 Grumman 14 ft v bottom boat. The boat has deep sides and i was looking to putting a floor above the second seat. I wanted a steady platform to put crab pots and to be able to stand and pull the pots. Need feedback on how to apply floor.
