I have a 2020 14' SSV and I just took some 3'x3' skeletal interlocking heavy rubber mats from my gym and garage. I cut them so they fit between the seats. They cushion the floor, reduce noise and are very grippy yet waterproof.
Sweet! I wanted some flat floors to be able to stand up and be somewhat stable. The v in the front floor is quite deep so much better being flat. Cheers!
I have a 2000 ssv 14, the ressr piece rotted alittle. Why did you screw thruthe vinyl, and not screw the base on first. I don’t want the screws showing
It would seem likely the the linoleum would be dangerously slippery if it was wet? Could you address this issue? I’m not a big fan of carpet but a slippery floor would be a deal breaker? Thanks
Does the back board sit flush with the middle walkway? I'm measuring my ssv14 and 52" wide seems like it will sit a bit raised from the walkway not flush.
The back does not sit flush. I made the rear floor first. I wanted the floor to sit above the rails that run on the floor of the boat. If I cut the notches like I did on the front panel to accommodate the rails I could have dropped it an inch to make flush. Worked out in end cause I don’t trip over my cable for sounder cause it is protected bu the lip now. But if you want it flush cut out the 2 notches on each side to allow the plywood to sit lower.
Don’t use treated wood on Aluminum it will eat right through the Aluminum. I used to be a senior executive with a major boat company and we where the largest manufacturer of Aluminum boats. We never used treated wood.
@@cohoman83 yes they are just square. One I believe I cut the 2x4 to match the angle of the boat. The frame I thought I measured as well in the vid. But roughly to my memory was about a foot wide by and then as wide as the panel itself. Just depends on how low or high you want it all to sit. I made mine as close as possible to my walk through seat between both panels

Did y use glue on the vinyl. Hind site might have been better. Used the screws to help hold vinyl on. No other reason really

Nah. Floor works awesome. I usually do barefoot as well. No issues

Good to know. Thx for sharing! Cheers
did you use outdoor/marine linoleum, and how is it holding up? thanks
Holding up great. I believe I just got it from Home Depot. Nothing special.
Hi i am interested in doing the same to my boat so you have a measurement please and thank you in advance
3/8 or 1/2 ply?
1/2. Just reg ply.
One other quick question ,the frame for the back is just square? Do you know roughly the dimensions of the 2x4s

@@bigair0176 thanks man I just bought some starboard that I'm going to use for the floor. Never going to deteriorate? Cheers happy fiahing
Same to you brotha!
This time I will do it manually with the help of Woodglut designs.
Nice. Certainly cheaper more then likely!
@@bigair0176 Yes 👍
