Puravida a todos!

I hope everyone is well. I posted an article about 4 months ago about cabin soles. Does anyone have a decent lead on where to buy material for new cabin soles, or any solutions that give the same look but not for the same price! Thanks everyone!

Why do you want to replace it?

I'd seriously consider doing something similar to Chris Mckillips modification in this months mainsheet.

Do a search on Teak and Holly floors on this forum. It would probably be cheaper.

Tanglefoot,
This material is very easy to work with, you can cut it with a box Knife, and the great part is that over time it will not rot out like wood. I have had it in the boat now for about 2 months and it still looks brand new. I really like the weight savings over the real stuff, but nothing compares to real wood. It has a low sheen to it, but overall I give it a thumbs up over carpet.
