FC470 Floor needed

Hello, I recently acquired a Zodiac FC470 that is in need of a floor. Defender Marine told me they can order one for $3500, roughly ten times what I paid for the boat.

They told me to reach out here and see if anyone has a used setup or possible plans to build my own.

Any help is appreciated.

Will

Well not all F 470’s are the same. Depends on vintage. Solid floors for them are less common than the slatted roll up floors.

Copy that. I think the previous owner may have found the roll up floor. I’ll know next week.

I know this might be a long shot but our army is selling all there old stock FC470s and floors separately. I have no idea what freight would cost but I know solid floors are going for 200-400 Aud. You can visit

Australian Frontline Machinery or Pickles Auctions who sell on behalf of them, I know they’ll be running another one in November.
