How about you? Wonder if any currently built boats use cork.

Mary,
I know it sounds weird, but check out Lumber Liquidators. They love their line of cork flooring.
I had them send me some samples (for home) and it did not do what I wanted it do for my application (I ended up with a maple laminate).
Anyway, they have lots of different styles/construction, that may suit your needs.
FYI, cork is environmentally responsible too..It is renewable because they only harvest the bark and the tree re-grows the bark in a few years and is not permanently damaged.
