1999 Crestliner Project

I have started working on the floors. It is much more painful then I anticipated. I do have the old flooring, but it is covered with the carpet, so taking accurate measurements of irregular shapes is difficult.

I am planning to use marine vinyl, so it is thinner then carpet, so all dimensions should be adjusted. And that is PITA. they were able to hide lots of irregularities with fluffy carpet that would be super visible with vinyl. So here I am cutting, fitting, cutting, measuring.

Looks pretty good to me. I think you will like the vinyl floor covering. As the young folk say, that stuff is the bomb.

I'm not sure if your questions were answered about the hoses and fittings.

I'd leave the rubber hoses be. The plastic ribbed stuff is okay on bilge pumps, but definitely not for the livewells. If you do replace it, go to a hardware store and get some of the braided vinyl hose. Heater hose works too but is more expensive and prone to kinking.

Most plastic thru-hulls are not rated for use below the waterline. Be aware of that. Bronze is always a good choice.
