Hi,

We had a little holding tank issue and now we need to remove the plywood floor from our 250 WB for cleaning. The table appears to be glued and screwed down, and it looks like we need to rip it off to remove the floor. Is this the case or are we missing something? Anyone removed one of these floors before?

Julie, I don't think you're being ignored, I just think that not many have the teak and holly option that I assume you're talking about. My best guess is that the flooring that you're referring to is meant as a permanent installation and that removal involves major de-construction. You might contact Catalina and see if they have any ideas.

Hi Julie (please consider updating your Forum Signature so that readers can see which model boat you have - I believe it's a C250WB)

To my knowledge, those C250WB's that have wood on the Cabin floor it is glued down.

Can you share some pics of the area, table included, it would make things clearer (forgive the slight pun )

Thanks for the responses. The (holly) plywood floor is just screwed down. We can lift it, but the table and galley block us from pulling it all the way out. I just wondered if anyone has ever removed their table and what was involved.

Julie, the 'coffee' table is screwed down to the keel box under the Cabin table.

If I recall correctly, on JD the coffee table was secured with just 2 screws in the top.
