    what is the best kind of flooring to place in a 1966 14 foot fiberglass ski boat. i have already cut the original out and i still have a bunch of sanding to do but i would like to know the best type of flooring to use (plywood with fiberglas, kevlar, etc.)

    Fibreglass over decent plywood should be fine. Many production builders today still only use treated plywood. If you want to go fancy, there's always corecell, divinycell, etc. with fibreglass skins.
