MY DS1 has a naked floor.
Anyone have a template or extra floorboards laying around?

Hi captnpt,

I have dwg's and pdf's of the DS1 floorboards that I would be happy to send to you. Did 'em a few years ago as a "general service" to the group (even tho my boat's a DS2).

PM me for arrangements ...

I have some I'm willing to sell, where are you located? I don't think I can ship them.

Yup - that's the link I used to create the drawings! Beware, though: many of the dimensions given there don't "jive" when you make a dimensioned drawing/pattern. I just kinda "fudged it where it needed to be fudged", and it all worked out. I've sent patterns to several of the members of this forum, and they've all reported good results, so, yay me I guess?

J.P.
I sent a message to you regarding the floorboards.
I'm in Minnesota about 1 hour North of Minneapolis.

I just replied to your PM. Sorry it took so long, I had to go to my rental to make sure they were still there, and weren't rotting away.

I followed the online plans that were posted a couple of years ago and found them helpful. I'd strongly suggest you get a piece of cheap wall panelling, make a mock up that fits your boat, then use it as a pattern. The completed job will be in 4 sections that will be easily removable. Tricky part are the cross pieces.

Good luck.
