So this is how far I've gotten so far. I was going to put Herculiner on the whole bottom but I have since scrapped that idea since I dont want the extra weight and you wont even see it once I put the storage units in it.
The top bracing I am thinking is shown in red. I hope to have side storage, front and back decking (decking not for standing, just storage and chairs) with the middle area open.
Any comment/suggestions on the top bracing?
My next question is how the heck do I secure the floor to the bracing? The green circles are where the benches used to attach to the floor. The boat is so old the bench-to-floor attachments broke off so the bottom of the boat wasnt secured to anything and felt sort of filmsy.
Id hate to have to rivet from the bottom, but if that's the solution so be it...just rather ask before i go punching holes in it. :shock: Or maybe I put a plywood floor in?? I need some serious help.
Also, am I describing this boat correctly: flat bottom v hull?
Thanks everyone!
