just have a question do i really need to fiber glass in the wood that is going down in the cubby cabin floor/hull or is just pl it down ok? i mean its really not the stinger of the boat. its for for the floor and for the seating in the cabin.
Is the deck a required structural member to the hull? Don't quote me on this but I believe some hulls rely on the deck to add rigidity. Will PL be adequate if this is the case on your boat?
I may take the extra time and fiberglass it, but as stated before if its not for structure, screws would be fine, just make sure the wood is sealed as water will find its way in the darndest places.
