The old rhino liner material is old and beginning to chip on my aluminum boat. I'm looking for a material that stays cooler and durable. The rhino line gets hot in the summer! What are y'all suggestions?

SeaDek, but it is costly.

Example...to cover my 16 foot aluminium boat with 6MIL Seadek(floor and decks)I was quoted 1500 dollars. This is laser cut, bevelled edges from a pattern you supply or they may already have boat on file.
I spent 500+ on sheet material and cut and installed it myself. Looks OK for what it is, no comparison to them doing it for you.

I can fish barefooted, it gets warm but not hot. and unfortunately it shows every footprint. I have the olive green.

I like seadek but be careful if you leave your boat out in the sun a lot. I had seadek installed on a boat in March of last year. It is starting to shrink and the results are its delaminating.

Are they taking care of it? If I spent that kind of money on foam, I would be raising hell if I had any problems.

Not sure, that boat sold last week. I would think they would back their product. It was pretty obvious what happened. I have a few friends that use seadek and haven't had a problem. This boat sat out in the sun 24/7, not that that should matter.

I put hydroturf in the cockpit area of my boat. Works great.
Great on bare feet.

I did it because my boat was sunburnt pretty bad. So it cleans alot easier. Nothing slides on it either.
