I am finishing my floorboards and the book suggests adding non-skid to the varnish. Wondering if someone who has experence using the boat finds this necessary, or can I leave them smooth?

&nbsp; &nbsp;I've owned similar sized open (read: wet) sailboats and it was a benefit. You could install the floorboards and decide later. I plan to add non-skid.
