just purchased my first project!! I was told its a johnson but i dont know for sure anyone have an idea of make? anyways i know i want to seal the bottom wether its inside or out with ? steel flex? bedliner? herculiner? i would like to keep this as cheap a project as possible but know i will need to spend some cash..then i want to deck the front to the first bench put a low floor all the way back take the middle bench out too..my concern there is will this make it sturdy so that i can freely walk back and forth also what would be the best way to put in a floor and deck as far as framing and floatation foam or similar to it thanks for the help and advice

I used Steelflex, on the outside of mine I haven't had any leaks and it is really durable. the only tip i have is be sure to use a high quality roller my cheap rollers left fur everywhere! still looks good but thats my 2 cents.
 
Check out the pics from the project i did last summer. May give you a few ideas. Any questions feel free to PM me.
