    Carbon fiber floor replacesment

    I had a crazy thought of replacing my bluefin floor with carbon fiber material instead of marine grade plywood. My first thought is why they don't use this already and my second thought is to ask you folks on your experience with this material and would it work for flooring which will hold a...
