My aluminum boat needs a new floor and I'm mulling my options. Looking for opinions or experience as boat flooring is new to me. Boat is a 14.5' Grumman aluminum fishing boat, so this is a relatively simple project. The original floor was plywood and carpet, rotted away now. Previous owner covered it with painted plywood which I pulled out. I don't want to replace it with plywood because -- well plywood is complicated in aluminum boats.
Short version: I'm debating cedar or composite decking. They are similar enough in cost, either should last 10 years or more. There are other woods I'd consider if I found a good deal on them.
What should I use and where should I buy it?
