I don't leave it in the water unless I am staying somewhere, maybe for overnight, but rarely. I flush it and of course hose the bost everytime I bring it in. This one is actually in prety good shape considering it's almost 10 years old and only has a bit of surface rust on the upper portion. I am not too worried about it really, goes with the territory.

As for the floor boards they are just plastic and they tend to be a bit slick when they get wet, which of course happens quite a bit when you are pulling crab pots.

Actually the floor boards are like airline floors. The original owner worked at Boeing, so he tinkered with a lot of ****. He diamond plated the crap out of it.
