[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 480888, member: 15636"] You are sooooo right, at a minimum that's all that's needed. Good :D job! Now, only because I always have the epoxy(www.raka.com) on hand, I'll advise others how to take it one step further to last the life of the boat. 1) Wet out the edges of the plywood, wet out again, once the 1st coat kicks ... repeat 2) Coat topsides and bottom ) Lightly sand and paint with RustOleum enamel or any good 'barn' paint, throw sand on top of the top-coat if needed for traction [i]Takes but 2-hours extra at most, less time really ... [/i] Now sit back and enjoy a boat's lifetime[b][i] free of rot [/i][/b]floor! [/QUOTE]
