Just curious if anyone has any idea on why they did this??????? Seems really cheap and bound to fail. I replaced mine with starboard.
My dad's guess is that they got it through some kind of flooring company as left over peices,blanks,templates,etc..

When Willy and I visited Franco several years back, we toured the Pursuit plant...they are turning out some of the finest boats on the market today in their class...and they are using wood squares as described here...done right it is not a sign of cheap manufacturing or an inherant problem...it's how the glass gets laid to it that makes the difference...
