Miami! It’s a wet heat!

I had a job in Miami for work to go do, and figured while I was down there I would get some Marine Plywood for the decking. While I was there, my buddy who is letting me use his place found a sweet deal on a Ditch Witch down there, so I picked it up for him and brought it back too. Also, new wheels and tires for the truck!

Here's where things begin to go a bit off the rails and I have to "wing it". I forgot to measure the channel the plywood sits in to see what plywood I needed. After several Google and forum searches, I came to the conclusion that 5/8" was the size used. I could not find 5/8 Marine Ply locally in Miami, but 3/4 was everywhere. No big deal, I'll just route the perimeter down so it will fit the 5/8. Well, I get home and began getting setup to route and find the flooring was actually 1/2! Yikes. That's more than I wanted to route, but it will be fine. If nothing else, I'll have the most solid floor in an airstream I guess.

It was at this point, dumb move #2 was encountered. For some reason, I though the floors followed the frame rails, so I cut the decking to follow the frame rails. No bueno. The decking actually comes out past the frame rails and the opening is determined by the wheel wells. I removed these sections and just left the front and rear floors attached.
