This is the trailer. The mesh floor is barely strong enough to support me,
plus it lets in all the road spray/debris/etc. I'm at the very least going to
cover it with CDX, if I don't find anything better, since I also use it to
haul misc stuff, which right now requires a lot of "position engineering" so
the weight is on the crossmembers.
Your suggestion had me look at a few marine forums, and people asking the same
question were told to laminate their own from 3/8" (or pay big bucks). I'm not
near enough to the water to make it worth a trip anyway.
