I am contemplating the installation of a 1/4" teak holly plywood sole in a cherubini 27'. There are is a spot on the floor that is not quite flat where the hull and floor meet. Has anyone installed this product before, and can give me a suggestion as to some of the tricks. Will the plywood confort to this slight rise in the sole in this spot if I weight it down with dumbell weights? I am planning on using west system epoxy to glue it to the sole.

Check archives.
You should be able to find some photos in the archives. Rather than dumbells I would suggest a wedge, a 2x2 cut to fit between the overhead and the sole. With the wedge you will have no problem achieving the curvature. You could have several pieces ready. Some scraps of carpet will keep them from marking the sole or cabin fiberglass. These will put a constant pressure on the plywood while the epoxy sets.
