[QUOTE="milbor1983, post: 241859, member: 5371"] I've gotten all the floors out and the original floor was so bad, I literally had to vacuum it out. It came out in very few large pieces haha. I have put a new drain in the livewell, so while I was digging around underneath it I did notice some wet foam. It didn't seem too saturated, as it was wet probably about a half inch up. So, I will replace the foam under the livewell/front bench area. The foam under the front deck and main floor seems dry so I will probably leave it as is. The front deck was in decent shape and wasn't rotten, but I will probably be cutting a new piece for it because it is not sealed. I also may add some storage underneath it like the original design. I could use the same piece of wood, but stripping the carpet does not sound like too much fun, so I will probably start with a new piece of 5/8" plywood and put some spar urethane coats on it. Do you guys typically bevel the cut of your front deck to achieve a better fit along the perimeter of the plywood? The existing deck is beveled. [/QUOTE]
