Nice work. You do it yourself? Always feels good to see something look great when you put your own sweat into it

Yes, seadek is very easy to install. Cajun Outboards in Addis handled the motor install for me. Very pleased with everything.

Tell me about the seadek... what’s the estimated cost? How’s it hold up? Does it stain? Non slip?

Interested as well.
How did you get them to make those custom cut-outs?
Did you send pics/measurements in?

I just ordered a template kit from them & traced out everything with a sharpie. You can make templates out of pretty much anything that will lay flat though. They send you sheets of clear mylar. I have put seadek in 3 of my boats & I have never had an issue with it. 3 year warranty & they can do custom designs too.

Some additional information on seadek... when you custom order pads, they charge you for a whole sheet of material. If you ask they will send you the "cut sheet" so that you can see how much material you have left on that sheet. The pieces I just put on my boat took 2 sheets. I only added the small piece behind the seat and the piece infront of the console because it was just extra material on the sheets and it didn't cost me any extra money. Like I said, they charge u for the whole sheet so u just as well use it. I also got a pad for the top of my 65 yeti that I didn't take a picture of.

Are you currently in Destin with the boat? Saw one this morning that looked just like it.

No. I am currently offshore at work.

I got the boat wrapped last week. Here are some pics:

It is not cheap. There is a company (I guess 2) CastAWay Customs & LA Boatworks that will scan the boat to have a pattern for all cutouts/hatched/hardware/etc. you pick you color/trim/texture/etc. super easy to install.

Mixed reviews on how it holds up. There is a warranty & Sea Dek will have your files saved to cut individual replacement pieces. More issues with combing pads than the flooring.

I still cant wrap my head around how that stuff can possibly be durable enough for the inside of a boat.

I have it propped with a 19p bravo1xc. I literally picked the boat up, put it in the water to check everything out and put it back on the trailer. I came offshore the next morning. I will post some numbers when I get home and have time to dial it in. Planning to fish the upcoming IFA event in houma with my son so I will be on the water for sure.

Holeshot is freaking amazing though. It jumps up really fast with that prop.
