That snap plank flooring looks interesting. I like the look of a teak and
holly cabin floor, but it's really not practical and it's way too expensive
these days. It requires maintenance and gets slippery when the boat heels. It
sheds water, unless that water puddles, then if the varnish has any damage the
water gets under, it lifts the finish. The water gets into the wood and rots
the wood.
I think I prefer a waterproof carpet or EVA flooring. Better grip when sailing
and warmer in winter.
I wish I could find a high quality product like PermaTeak in DIY self adhesive
sheets and I would simply cover the floor boards I have. Les expensive, better
for the environment, better for the feet.
