: Just looking for anyone's experience with floors in a plywood framed SOF type
: boat. Had someone inquire about putting in floor boards. I am starting a
: new design, a touring boat and I think it would be great addition. This
: boat is stable enough the higher COG isn't going to be a an issue at all
: If you did this what material did you use for the floors. Cedar is light but
: hard to find here. Was thinking 1/4" plywood strips might be a good
: choice.
This is how I did mine. It's kind of the Yost way of doing it without using aluminum angles. I used some 5/8 plywood scraps and peg/epoxied them to the cross section and then peg/epoxied 1/4 oak bead board scraps that I had laying around. Later I coated them with epoxy and then varnished them.
I then drilled a couple of 1/4" holes and epoxied a couple of 3" dowels under the floor boards to keep them from sagging. I'm happy with them.
