Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | I used starboard for a modification in my 1690 Patriot, and it held up well; I used the nylon impregnated stuff. I t was gray, and had a smooth surface. It was 1/2" as I remember, and the lids were fine. I bolted the frame together and bolted the top to the frame countersinking the bolts. More work, but better looking when the carpet was on.
Carpet lifted off it until I used a good contact type weatherproof carpet glue, though.
Still, the structure will flex at a different rate than the liner, so I'd bolt her through. |
