3/8 Starboard for the fuel tank hatch. Isnt that to thin ??. will it flex when walked on .
I myself need to replace my fuel tank hatch and never even thought of starboard. What a great idea. I was just going to screw a 2x4 or a peice of re-bar to the under side untill I could afford having the fuel cover hatch repaired.

Mike, in my 75 V20 the gas tanks are saddle bag and on the sides under the gunnel's!!
The floor covers you see are fish boxes built into the floor, they are made of 3/4 Starboard!
You would never be able to use 3/8 for your application!! And reel is right its not cheap stuff!! But you will never ever have to replace it as long as you live either!!
What I used here is Seaboard, the same as Starboard, but comes in more colors and even a None slip texture for 1/2 the price.
Do a search in your area to see if you can find someone that sells seaboard. It is used by all the super markets and resturants for cutting boards, doors, bathroom stalls and the uses are endless!!
Here is were I got mine, it is in Boston Ma. The prices are not upgraded here but you can call formthem.
