: I use narrow floorboard on all my Yost boats. Even though the fabric I use is
: pretty bullet proof I still don't like abrading it's surface.

Actually might call them heelboards instead of floorboards as only my heels touch them. Usually about 3" to 4" wide per side (of the keel) don't weigh much. I follow the V shape of the hull so they tend to center your feet while in the boat.
