	baz, fiberglass it in mate then gelcoat it all over to seal it. i painted mine with blakes deck paint mixed with very fine sand. thats what was done to my boat floor. looks nice and no water will come from between the hull and floor as its sealed.

	I bought some rubber non-slip deck covering from a boat jumble. Half the price compared to even the cheapest web deal I could find.
