[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 462162, member: 22139"] Not sure what your boat looks like, pics would help. I am a fan of drop in floorboards in utility boats. It makes it nice to stand on and allows for standing closer to the sides without being uncomfortable. Also nice to set things on without tipping over ribs, tackle boxes etc. It does add weight which is sometimes a good thing depending on boat size. I just use 5/8 plywood and make a couple pieces from 2X4 to support from the bottom. I space them to just fit next to the ribs so the floor doesn't slide around. I have seen slide bolts used to keep them latched in to the bench seats. I have just left bare wood on some of my boats protect with a sealer. Carpet would look sweet as well. Wood lasts a long time if it's kept dry. Store boat with tongue up high to drain and take floors inside during off season. Sent from my CLT-L04 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
