Floor Works

The floor in the forecastle is finished and well protected with hardboard.

In the saloon (see photo) we have chosen a construction of 15mm plywood and 15mm oak flooring. At the moment the plywood is being fitted between the many ribs. BJØRNSUND has no central superstructure - we achieve headroom - even for taller people - under the deck beams. We thus use as much width as possible and pull in the floor between the ribs. This is a lot of work, but we will be rewarded with space and a harmonious look. 

The oak is already planed and grooved. We lay the wood in a bed of Sika 298 glue and insert external tongues to prevent warping. 

Some of the boards are designed to be taken out quickly, all of the other can simply be unscrewed.
