    Foam and flooring coming next, starting to see some progress! Taking suggestions for floor coverings. Carpet, eva foam, rubber mats, etc. What do you guys think? I'm hesitant on the eva foam because it stains so easy.

    Do you worry the the metal on metal supports could create holes in the hull from flexing over time?

    • @mvboutdoors
      @mvboutdoors  Рік тому +1

      That was definitely a consideration when doing the supports, I made sure they are only riveted to the ribs so nothing is rubbing on the hull.

      @@mvboutdoorsI’m glad i read this comment because on my deep v i was just going to cut small pieces from angle rivet to ribs and then go up with other angles. problem with that idea is i would have to drill holes in the side of the hull to attach the deck . Unfortunately my boat was a closed bow up front that i cut open so i need to put side supports in and drill some holes into the hull

    Enjoyed the video.
    I am laying a new sub floor in a mod v as well and am curious how far you were able to run your floor with the severe angle toward the bow? Is that why you added the front bench seat? Thanks

    • @mvboutdoors
      @mvboutdoors  4 місяці тому

      I stopped about a foot after it started to angle up. I figured since I couldn't walk on the angle it would make more sense to turn it into storage.

    I’ve been following your build videos. About how many feet of angle aluminum did you buy to complete the floor bracing?

    • @mvboutdoors
      @mvboutdoors  7 місяців тому +1

    Did this reduce flex? Im trying to reduce flex as i have a couple rivets that only leak when im mobbing in rougher water

      @mvboutdoors  11 місяців тому +1

      It stiffened up the boat for sure. I would rebuck the rivets and seal with epoxy first.

      These are built using 1/16 aluminum angle. You purchase it at your local hardware store. I believe I used 1.5"
