Old Four Winns Flooring rotten
 
Hi all,
Novice at boat repair but, I have a 1989 Four Winns Freedom 190 that the
flooring is rotted out. I need to know what to use to "refloor it". Teak
seems real expensive. I haven't spoken w/ a dealer yet. does anyone have
experience with this type of work. The flooring was/is covered w/ carpet so
I guess the grade of wood really isn't an issue, just resistance to rot.


Thanks in Advance,

Craven

================================================== ======

Marine plywood encapsulated with epoxy (2 coats on the end grain) will
get the job done.
