Bulkheads and the Floor

Now that the boat has been flipped, the rest of the joints are covered in fiberglass and epoxy. Bulkheads are added to create compartments and to strengthen the floor.

The flooring is cut and sanded to fit from 3/4 inch Medium Density Overlay Plywood (MDO).

 

 

Then the flooring is removed and the underside is covered in epoxy.

 

When it is dry, the flooring is laid back into the boat and attached with thickened epoxy. The floor is screwed down to hold it until the epoxy dries, and then the screws are removed.
