Boat Floor Replacement

We are currently replacing the floor on a 23' ski boat and we plan to use 3/4" marine plywood. We were able to remove the old decking without damaging the foam or stringers. Our question is when we go to put the new plywood in should we cover the bottom side of the plywood with fiberglass and cloth before we set it down?
