Hello,

I am toying with the idea of putting in a cork floor in my F30.

And the majority of the hall in the F30 is exactly 36 inches wide and 12 x 12 tiles - you get the idea - even I could put most of the floor in!!!!

My best friend is handicapped so I wanted something some what slip proof.

Sure carpet is slip proof - but boring and I dont need to vacuum cork.

Im on Lake Michigan so I only have a humidity problem 6 months a year.

All ideas and comments appreciated!

I put in a cork floor and love it. Warning, though- even though it is in the galley, the colors lightened significantly except where it was covered with a throw rug.

Well I have an F30

Cabin is a dark cave with all the dark plexiglass windows on the sides and bow. If the sunlight faded the floor, I do not think I would complain.

I am toying with the idea of replacing the two front bow black plexiglass windows with clear tempered glass instead of the smoke colored windows.

I will take any sunlight I can get!!!!

But I am thinking cork will pop and unusal for my area!
