I am redoing the interior of a 69 houseboat and am wondering if there are
any materials I should stay away from (because of the environment,
durability etc). For example I would like to use a dropped ceiling using the
fiberglass panels rather than the (card)board type. Cut them in half and use
2 X 2 panles due to the small area (28 X9). Obviously I can't drop it much.
This type of ceiling can easily be removed if and when upper deck repairs
need to be done etc. What materials are light enough for cupboards etc but
yet strong. Flooring? Seems to me wood floors would take a beating and what
about dampness.

Of course I would really like to hear some of your ideas.

Anyone use any of the eco toilets (eg composting)? LED lighting?

Thanks,
Steve L
