We love to have ya'll but it's nice when the retirees head back north! The canoe race I mentioned above is the unofficial water party that signifies the return of our roads and restaurants from being clogged with the visitors. We consume a small amount of booze that day and enjoy pelting canoe racers and fellow boaters with water balloons and water cannons.

@Murf'n'surf , did you get your Hydroturf removed already? If not, I would love to help... either with the removal or the new install. Just let me know...

As for mine, I am thinking an early morning start for swim platform removal, and the wives and family could meet us at Jack's for lunch... my treat. But we might have to wait for mid January when the temp could get close to 55 degrees... brrrr...

Got mine on today :) turf came off really easy, just had to use this very specific scraper: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Hyde-10-in-1-Painter-s-Tool-06920/100659770

I didn't do any damage to my gelcoat either, which was surprising. That said, last night it got down to about 45 degrees where I live so I pulled the turf off in the morning and then hid in the shade to put on my seadek.

Just posted an install write up! I was lucky and had a virgin floor. Install took me just under 2 hours.

You only have the swim platform to clean? That's a piece of cake, 2 hours and it will be off.

You still have until midnight in your time zone. Email Will and it locks you in on the special pricing.

I saw a post about the melting issue on here a while ago, if you put something over the chrome or make it like a brushed finish it will solve the problem, as stated above the issue was the mount acting like a magnifying glass and heating up the turf and melting it.
If you leave a full, clear water bottle (as apposed to deja blue with blue bottle) long enough in the sun it will melt almost anything meltable. I made the mistake of leaving a water bottle on swim deck for a couple of days.

Sorry but there is not enough margin in the product to allow for a sale.
