Hello,<br /> any ideas what kinda treated lumber should be used for floor of boat? I purchased the boat knowing that the floor had rotted away. I picked up the boat, the sea king tilt trailer the 1972 50 hp evenrude and the chysler 4 hp for a very very good price. Just need to get the floor repaired.
