Got mine in yesterday! Looks awesome. Can't wait to get it installed!

I wonder if it would be possible to make some small bits to cover those snaps that are way away from the main section? Also, looks like a half inch increase in size would be all that would be needed to cover those on the edge of the mats. Can you order boats without the carpet snaps? If not, then everyone has this issue?@Britboater we template from the factory anti skid, not from the carpet. The kits would cost much more if we enlarged the parts beyond where they are now. Sheet sizes determine parts yield and we optimize to lower prices.
It's the sections around the two seats, I did try and move the panel to cover the holes up, but you have the circle around the seat base to align, so not able to move too much. It is literally 1/2" more to both passenger and drivers outer edges. With the 2016 boats you don't need to included the anchor locker as that comes already covered from factory, so not sure if that gives you any more material to work with.All Yamaha Boats come with carpet. We could extend the mats a half inch but not sure if that would increase the sheet usage. We typically max out each sheet when we design the kit but there could be room to improve. Tell me exactly which mats meet to be enlarged.
If your back deck is worn out I would go ahead and replace it with this but keep the carpet a season and see what you think. I didn't do the interior as my carpet is still brand new never used but honestly I do not plan to use it either just run mostly with the normal bottom.Being a new 242LS owner the SeaDek looks great and easy to maintain. My carpets look great but I can see the advantages to installing these for cleaning ease and appearance. Buying at the end of the season with less that one hour of seat time on the boat I was looking for some possible pros and cons of the product.
That is why many say that BOAT=Break Out Another Thousand! LOL@robert843 thanks fine sir, that's some great advise as everything is like new so no need to spend extra cash. Lord know after you buy a boat the gates open on assesories and fun things.
