[QUOTE="Hanr3, post: 88464, member: 1055"] The only downside I see is a slick floor when wet. You will need at least 3 coats of an outdoor grade polyurathane to protect that wood if you want to keep it longer than a year or two. As for the edges, more poly, it will seal the edges just as well as the deck surface. TO extend the life of the boat, cover it when not in use. Carport, garage, boat cover, or even a tarp for $5 will work. Keep the sun off the wood and you will greatly extend the longevity. Lowes sells a rubber backed outdoor carpet for like $6 a linear foot, 1 foot by 12' long. If you get 8 linear feet it'll cost like $42 bucks, plus adhesive or contact cement. Get the version without loops. I have it in my boat and it doesn't snag hooks. [/QUOTE]
