Well, after sitting out in th weather all winter, my small soft spot in the floor has grown. I plan to have the Perelli or Lonseal installed but how big a job is replacing the decking? I was thinking about maybe doing it myself. Installing plywood shouldn't be that difficult, I just wasn't sure if I needed glass work over the top since I am having a commercial type non skid flooring installed?

It's not too bad. :confused:
I've seen several threads on this subject.
But my favorite resource is;
The Fiberglass Boat Repair Manual
By Allan H. Vaitses
ISBN 0-87742-228-1
International Marine Publishing

Anyway, it covers this subject in great detail, and always he suggests replacing the core with one of the foam coring materials. The fact your covering the deck with other material means the cosmetics are easier.
Good luck;
