No water will make it that far forward. These boats are always nose high even when stopping the water in the bilge doesn't get very far forward towards the front of the floor. Unless ur taking on a lot of water. U will get some on the floor from over the transom if u just cut the throttle and come to a stop.

Got the floor all cut to fit and had to grind a bit of the balsa down for the floor to fit level and then glassed a layer of 1708 with vinyl ester to the bottom side. Let sit overnite and today SPRAYED a 3rd layer of resin over the balsa and stringers rite befor I set the floor I to place and put som weight on it to set up for a couple days.
I cant seem to rotate the pics so that they are correct on my phone. Even after rotating them in my gallery they still end up wrong on the thread.Last edited by roadkill636; 06-01-2014 at 08:19 PM.

Yes... I coated the floor with thickened vinyl ester. Soaked both sides of the 1" balsa with all the squares opened up laying on a barrel. Then layed it in the hull. Coated the top again after an hour or so and wraped it with plastic then put boards and lots of weight on it for a day. Then a layer of 1708 then last nite bruched on a coat then today SRRAYED on a coat over anything and everything that is gone from site under the floor.

After the core was all put down and glassed in .right before I layed the 1/2" floor down I wipped up a batch of vinalester and thined it with asatone and sprayed everythig one last time before covering it all up. It didnt really need it but I wanted to anyway. Asatone isnt the ideal thinner for. Resin but what the heck... I did it and it got hard a day later. And I nust used a paint sprayer that was stuck on the ON possision and tossed it in the rash when I was done.

I am interested to know the sprayer setup. What type of paint sprayer did you use? New to spraying but not new to fiberglass and resin.

It was just an old junk Speedair paint sprayer that probly cost $25 with a 1.8 tip and I used full 100-125 air pressure because I wasent worried about how well it covered but rather wanted one final coat over everything before covering it up with the floor.
