I’m getting my last piece of SeaDek in at the pilot’s seat and I can see this going either of the two possible ways. I’m definitely lining up the “seams” either way. I have a preference, but want the opinion of the masses.

I'd go with B. Your not going to notice the absence of coverage to the right of the helm & both lines on the left edge line up. In A they do not.

I personally would go with "A". There is more width to the first panel, plus that edge is a high Use area with feet. Remove the snap, I removed all of mine. Fill with the gel coat repair patch, light sand buff and done. You will never know the snap was there. On all of my covered snaps I filled them all in with Gel Coat Patch and sanded and buffed them before putting down the sea deck. Probably overkill.

I'm for "B". The last stripes to the left look to line up in a more aesthetically pleasing way with the ones on the floor and locker door.

That's my $0.02 worth.

:cool:

Ok after eye balling it a few times, I will change to "B" it looks better.

B, for sure. Take a picture of both setups standing up and looking at it with the seat and wheel in the way - outside of this vantage point no one will see the minor gap on the left.
