[QUOTE="nlester, post: 378850, member: 8483"] I built some panels using 1.5" x 1/4" slats stapled to 1 by framing and sitting on the ribs. I like them because I can remove them them for cleaning and they stay dry because water passes through the 1/8" gaps. The only problem I've had was when a wave came over my stern and the floated up. That was the day the foam in my seats got my boat back to shore. I left the slats rough cut after ripping them on the table saw. I used cardboard to make patterns to fit the framing to the floor between the ribs. It took me a half a day because it was suppose to be temporary. That was several years ago. I still plan on redoing them. [/QUOTE]
