Ken,

What does it mean when you say -"the main liner is gone"?

When I used to build glass over wood boats, I would build a self bailing floor (washdeck) out of plywood. I would cover the plywood with a layer or 2 of ounce and a half matt and topcoat that with a pigment coat of resin in very light gray.

Carpeting ???

Maybe if I were trolling for bikini tuna. :P
