Floor repair

[Stillrunning]

I think you will find that 1 foot of soft spot will be another 6 or so inches bigger to find dry wood. I just fixed and area which I thought was about 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 and ended up cutting out a 2x3 area. I took a drill and worked my way out until I found clean dry wood then started cutting. That way you will have that top skin to lay back in instead of cuting it out a littl at a time. I then just repainted the entire floor of the boat. I used Bher garage floor paint with a little non-skid added to the paint. I used the same paint 7 years ago and it held up great at about $23.00 a gallon.
