Exterior grade plywood. Seal it with a spar urethane. Cover it with carpet or vinyl.

Welcome to the site.
 
The floor of my duck boat is 3/4" exterior plywood with a 10 or 15 year exterior paint tinted to match the boat. The front deck is 1/2" plywood with 2x3 framing.

Aluminum diamond plate. Just paint it to get rid of the reflectiveness, and no need to worry about carpet or vinyl, and whatnot.

Welcome to the site, by the way. :D
 
thanks !!

Here is what it looks like so far . I bought a used trailer and motor , i painted the trailer, replaced the wood and carpet and replaced the tail lites. Then Camo painted the boat and motor . Motor needed a new pump impeller , its wasn't peeing very well . The impeller was dried out and in bad shape . I also changed the oil in the lower end . I only have a 1990 Evenrude 8 hp 2 stroke ,its not going to set any speed records but should get me into some ducks .
