Today's episode
Removing the floor after an afternoon chiselling and de-nailing.
I found that the bearers where still quite solid but more importantly some delamination of the encapsulation down the Port side, either form ages of being sat on the same trailer or being bounced.
However the main single piece 8' x 4' 10" floor panel is in surprising good shape (Apart from someone cutting a hole in it for inspection

)
The underside
The underside after scrapping, pressure washing, hand drying and a final scrapping.
The top surface is almost pristine. At this point I see no reason why this can't be reused. So I intend to repair the holes, apply 5 litres of Everbuild Lumberjack and relay this section of floor on fresh bearers.
I will be visiting my local reclamation company to see if I can find some well seasoned 1" hardwood boards to use as bearers.
