On your floor is that 1708 around the sides and on the seams and chop mat on the majority?

TNRIVERRAT The floor is glued down with thicken resin (resin,1/4 chopped strand and cabosil ) then 1708 all around the sides and covered the whole floor and up over the 1708 with csm. My thinking is that the glue ( thicken resin ) and the 1708 is were the strength is the rest of the covering is just to seal it. Just my thought.

Well its almost done for now. The shop that is letting me use there place is starting to get busy and I have to get it out, so this is it for now. The seat is just temp. I plane on getting new ones but needed something to sit in for now. I will be looking around for somebody that can paint the rest of the boat at a decent price or I will be learning how to paint real soon.
