Replacing 1972 Boler plywood sheet floor?

Hi everyone. I’m new to this sight, and a very new Boler owner. The existing plywood floor in my Boler is punky and soft and needs to be replaced. The outside top edge of the floor is fiberglassed about 4 inches in from the walls on the plywood surface. Should I cut the fibreglass back to the wall or should I delaminate the fibreglass from the wood floor surface some how. 🌺

Cut back, replace the plywood, and re-glass the perimeter. Do it in sections to maintain shell support.

I would not cut it back all the way to the wall. Leaving some will give you a tab to know where the floor belongs when you replace the wood.


Make your floor templates before you start cutting.
