As with other Tin restoration projects, my '64 SC Jupiter needs new wood to include the sole aka floor. I've been playing with the idea of ditching plywood all-together and going with 1x4 cedar planking that runs from bow to stern with 3/8" gap between planks. I read a similar discussion here where this type of flooring was used on a fiber vessel and its integrity was later questioned due to the strength the plywood adds to that type of construction..... but what about aluminum. Would there be any perceived integrity issues?
