Wow, sold my 2007 AR210 in less than a day, sight unseen, and turned around and found a 2016 AR240 with 26 hours on it barely used for $48k, I feel like I won the lottery! It includes the Shoreland'r upgraded trailer. The carpet is still in the wrappers, he never even used them! So the first thing I want to do is match the rear deck Seadeck, it's a gray on dark gray with the teak pattern. How big of a job is it to install those without messing up the alignment? The only place I seem to be able to find them is jetboatpilot, are there other brands worth looking at? We pick it up Thursday, I'm dying to get thru the next 2 days...

Nice boat! I sold my carpets on eBay in two days for $275. Jetboatpilot is where I got my Seadek. I live in Panama City so I had them install. I was painless and I then bought some more pieces and installed myself, Its not hard just make sure you follow instructions, YouTube has some good videos.

Congrats! Yes... @JetBoatPilot is the only vendor I'm aware of that has Seadek kits for our boats. It is easy to install....you lay it down....making sure it is in the correct spot....then you kneel on it in place, and peel back part of the backing and cut it off...then lay it down again without moving....it goes down exactly where you had it. Then you move to kneel on the spot you just stuck down and peel off the rest of the backing and lay the mat down....done.

Thanks, I've watched several of the videos now and talked with JBP, I'll have the carpet listed in a few days (we don't pick the boat up until Thursday) and then we'll get the Seadek ordered. Can't wait!

FYI,
If you can hold off till September JBP usually has a group purchase in seadeck kits. Discounts can/have reached 30% off.
