The Tuff-coat isn't bad at all, I took it out to the lake today and kicked the shoes off and didn't have any problem walking on it barefooted.

Finally finished the front, next winter I will knock out the back deck. For now, its fishing season.

This is a better picture of the texture.

Finally got the Tuff-coat applied. A friend picked up a hopper sprayer at a yard sale for me for $15 and it worked great. I really like the way this stuff sprayed out and covered the deck.

Your project looks great, I like the center console.

I used an Aluminum piano hinge, 3" wide. Its basically flat, I wish I would have waited and found an offset hinge to make the gaps a bit smaller, but this hinge will do. I will try to get you a better pic. The aluminum was a lot cheaper than stainless steal.

Looks good, I wish I could have used 2x4's. My boat was just to deep and I needed to raise the floor higher.

Your boat is looking good. I see you put a pedestal seat on the back deck, your wife must have decided that she likes being higher up.

Compartment doors cut and hinged

They say it holds up really well, I will be giving an opinion on it in a couple of months, hopefully it will be a good one. A lot of people seem to like it.

Looks great! I never even thought about using cedar. You definitely did your homework and research.

Tony, the 16/65 means it is a 16' boat with 65" gunwale. The boat is a 1964 alumacraft. I thought about carpet but decided to go with Tuff-coat rubberized decking with the two part epoxy sealer that goes with it. It will be easier to clean and I can re-apply in spots if I need to. Trying to get...

Trolling motor (Minn Kota Edge 45/45) calls for a 50amp circuit breaker or in line fuse. I found that Bass Pro has one for $61.99 and Academy Sports has the exact same circuit breaker for $29.99.

Well due to weather and work, haven't accomplished much. But, I do have alot on order and waiting for delivery of Tuff-coat, piano hinge, and circuit breaker for the trolling motor.

Thanks for all the help, I guess I will go with the two part epoxy that goes with the Tuff-coat flooring. I just want to make sure it is sealed well enough so I don't have to do this again in a couple of years.
