[QUOTE="wihil, post: 277145, member: 6487"] If you get some backing foam in there between the ribs, I'd think 0.5" would be fine. The biggest thing is to be able to support the areas that don't have the ribs. There was a build on here where someone had a similar style boat that used the blue foam to fill the gaps, and then covered the bottom with a rubberized roofing sheet (which was a pretty cool idea IMO), and it was stiff enough with no problems - and removable. Either way, make sure you leave a channel down the middle for the boat to drain correctly! [/QUOTE]
