Actually my previous "stick built" boat had a 2x4 frame that was encapsulated and heavily tabbed to the hull. There was 1 small pan that made up the sole of the head but it also was attached to the frame like the rest of the furniture. Bulkheads weretabbed to the frame and the hull. Overhead was a liner that was more cosmetic than anything else. the ceiling (that's the walls on a boat) was 1-1/2 strips of teak screwed to fiberglass furing strips the ran vertically up the sides. I think every builder has there own combination of methods that they believe gets them a competatively priced boat to the market. In your search for the right boat, use the previous posts to evaluate each element and what it contributes to the structural compromise known as a boat.
