[QUOTE="Robert48, post: 448123, member: 23401"] With the outside of the hull and trailer looking much better It was finally time to start on the new floor boards. This was not as easy as I thought it would be. I am pretty fair at building stuff out of wood but this was challenge to say the least. I am sure there are people here that could do this in their sleep but for me it was a slow and tedious process. I wish I could offer any words of wisdom here but for me it was make it up as you go. Every piece of wood was slowly customized until it fit the way I wanted it to. When the frame was done I used 3/8 plywood as a sub floor to hold it all together. The final floor piece is also 3/8 plywood with indoor/outdoor carpet purchased on Ebay. Every piece of wood on the boat was also treated with liberal amounts of a good quality waterproofing material. When all was said and done I had a good solid, level floor that didn't weigh too much and could still be removed without to much work. [/QUOTE]
