In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: Floor boards? (Kudzu)

: 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.

Mine are just 1/4" plywood, work fine, actually kinda comfy as the flex enough to make for a decent seat.
