    Floor ideas for a Deep C

    I was wondering if those that have covered the floor in their old alumacrafts could share some pictures and materials to show off their work. I want to put in a nice slat style floor but want to see some examples. Thanks in advance.

    Finally found a folding bench seat hinge
