That was part of last months preparations. I gave the bolts a shot of penetrating oil and a week later hit them with a wire wheel and another round of oil. I did a round of oil last Thursday hoping that enough oil would make things just fall off.
I have two sheets of Gator Board I got off Craig's List for the new floor. It is Douglas Fir marine plywood that has a resin non-skid coating on both sides. It is commonly used on docks and ramps.
