I am going to replace the floor in my 14' tin boat this year and was wondering on any advise. I have done it a few times in the last 20 years but I just usually use plywood and paint it. Last's ok but has to be done every year. I was thinking of coating the floor with epoxy or something to make it last longer. Should I use Marine grade stuff or is regular 1/2" ok. I would need 2 sheets because of the length. I imagine it is pricey. Anyway any help would be appreciated. Paul
