Cool! Another one restoring an old woodie DB.
I am in the process of restoring 25+ yo. Don Hill design. The bottom is 1/2" + an additional 1/4" piece of ply. Made the determination not to use the UHMW, but will go with epoxy/graphite instead.
The boat is only 13', so re-doing the bottom every year is not a problem, especially since it will see a lot of service over the next year.
If you have some pics, feel free to send them to me at mikeblack@delblackassociates.com and I'll post them right up for you.
Not difficult, really, just read the Tutorial page for the board at:
