Deck replacement

[toadfish]

This has probably been covered, and if so please let me know and I will look for it...if not, I am going to replace my deck of my 1986 18' Seacraft before too long (possible a winter project) because it is developing several soft spots due to water intrusion from deck screws, etc. I have done spot repairs but would like to re-do the entire thing because I have just added a custom t-top with all the fixin's and would like to have a sturdier platform. Now to the question...I have heard of replacing the decks with 3/4 marine ply that has been completely coated with epoxy, then screwed down to the stringers, bonded to the liner sides with biberglass tape and epoxy, then painted with paint and nonskid added. Does anyone have any suggestions other than this or is this pretty standard for a deck rebuild? I was supprised to hear that there did not need to be glass (such as mat or roving woven) added to the top or bottom of the deck, rather just coat it with epoxy..any suggestions or comments???
