Acquired a 19 ft Starcraft Islander from an estate. The floor and transom have been removed are are gone. the other wood parts are there to be reused or used as patterns. My dilema is the floor seems to be made up of atleaset five separate pieces of half or five eights plywood. It was suggeset that I screw down half inch ply even though the original was rivited down. As well just forward of the transom there are two braces about an inch apart for reasons unknown to me. The boat is powered by a 140hp OMC Sea Drive which my dealer has serviced since new and tells me the motor is a solid performer.
Do I screw or rivet the new floor? do I go with half inch ? What are those Channels for?
