Read some recent post about problems with water in the cockpit and cabin. Saw a product at a home show last week that looks like it would work great in boats. It will not solve the water problem, but it will keep your feet dry. Hard to describe, but it is plastic squares,12"x12" on raised feet, total about 1/2" thick. Wood slats about 2 1/2" x 12" snap Into the top of them, total deck is about 3/4" thick.There is about 1/8" between the slats so water can drain, and with the raised feet water can flow to the cockpit drain. I could not find a web page, but if anyone is interested and would like a brochure the address and phone is: Ideal Living Designs 1200 Howard Ave., Suite 203 Burlingame, CA. 94010 Phone (650) 340-9995 Dave M17 206
