Will this product work as floorboards on my boat ?. Also how much does 4 by 8 sheet weigh ?.

I don't have the specifics to answer your question....but maybe this will help. In order for HDPE or HDPP to be a floorboard, I would estimate it would have to be at least 1/2" thick and supported about every foot. It would be heavier than plywood. Also, when wet is is very slick. A 4X8foot chunk would be quite expensive and even more than marine plywood. I would suggest you buy marine grade plywood as it is not subject to rot like regular plywood. Marine plywood is designed to be in wet and high humidity areas, as all layers are glued with water-proof glues. Home Depot in some areas carries it at less than $100 a sheet. Some locations may even stock the 5X8 foot sheets. Chances are your boat has a transom that is made out of marine plywood. Most fiberglass boats have marine plywood built in the transom. My aluminum boat does. Here is a site that explains marine graded plywood. http://www.apawood.org/level_b.cfm?content=srv_help_prd_marine There is no good adhesive for HDPE that actually makes a good bond. Some have had some success with sanding to roughen the surface, washing with acetone, completely drying and then fire treating before applying adhesive. Something an individual can not possibly do properly. I hope this helps.

If your floor is concrete there shouldn't be a problem. I also think that floorboards with adequate covering would also work. It's a great way to work out- go ahead place the order.

This foam won't work for that application. You need bigger sheets and thicker too. Gravity would hold them in place.

That would depend on the size boards under the pads; i.e. 2x4's vs 4x4's or 4x6" bunk boards. The pads themselves can support just about any weight you can put on them if supported properly.

I know they will fit any 480x12 5 hole, however they are not built for a lot of weight. I "think" around 1600lbs. I have a 15.5 ft fiberglass ski/bass boat with an 85hp outboard motor and they work perfectly.

Well it's not light, u will probably need some help if you have some distance to cover. The web site should tell u the shipping weight.

I am sure this would tip over when the boat starts moving. You would be best served looking for another option. That's my opinion anyway. Good Luck!

Wish I could help, but so far I've only used these strips...2 at a time...to hang some relatively light-weight, 8x10 framed water colors on my office walls. And that worked wonderfully, but clueless re whether it would hold 8 lbs. Sorry.

As the description says, it's for small boats in still waters so I don't think it will suit your purpose. I use it on a small aluminum boat and it does great.

I'm not sure that this would be stable enough for what you need if you're referring to a 2-person pedal boat because the wheel base is fairly short. The boat may also be too heavy.

If you intend to cover the outboard motor along with the boat, I don't think it will work. I tried to use the same cover for my boat and motor and it was to short. I ordered a larger one and it works just fine. Because of the beam width, you will have an excess amount along the sides of the boat which can be snugged up.

Hello H.R. I have installed this flooring onto a plywood subfloor, with absolutely NO trouble. The backing is very sticky, I would think as long as there is no dampness, and no debris I think it might work. But, I give no guarantee:-P. Good luck with your project, with whatever you decide.LJ

I bought deck hangers for 2 X 4's and installed them as high as I could. The 2 X 4's between the beams worked out good. I still have head space problems. The straps can let your boat hang too low also. Operating the pulleys take some getting used to. Just make sure you pull until it dead stops and then tie it off.

This is a very sturdy ramp. I think a boarding ramp for an old house boat would work provided it is set and leveled properly. I'm surprised this is sold as dog ramp it's heavy bulky too much to take in and out of car I used it only a few times. Good luck

I put these on my boat trailer and seem to be working well.check the load rating ,but with 4 wheels you will be fine.

This slide popped pretty quickly, but we are rough on them. As for use on a dock, it could work..you might land partially on the small, inflated deck, but you land on it anyway. Filling the side panels will keep it stationery. Hope that helps....for the costs, sounds like a fun idea!
