Just installed Hydro Teak

[Bruce]

I was lucky enough to get the last of @JetBoatPilot's lighter colored Hydro-Teak material. My Wife and I installed the cockpit mats today and it came out great. The floor feels so much better on our feet, looks great and we got rid of all of the snaps that were no fun to step on. I had cleaned the floor, removed the snaps and filled the snap screw holes with 3M 5200 earlier in the week. The install took 24 minutes to line up, peel and apply the mat pieces.

Here is a picture of the installed mats, I will post more once I get the swim deck kit installed as well.



I am glad to see these suckers go!

Looks great. I'll be installing my snow camo seadeck soon.

This evening I removed the old swim deck mats and cleaned up the glue then we installed the new swim deck mats. It took about 2 hours to remove and clean. The mat install took about 10 minutes. Interestingly the new material is much thicker and softer than the original mats.

My rear seat backs are not really that dark, it is the garage lighting.



I also bought the swim deck mats

@Bruce Who makes this product? Hydro-Turf?

 

[Bruce]

@Murf'n'surf, Hydro-Teak is a name that @JetBoatPilot uses for his special cut two color Hydro-Turf products. You can see the options at Hydro-Teak . Hydro-Turf makes a two color stock with a top and bottom color. I believe that will uses a CNC machine to cut out the pieces and patterns.

For an additional fee he will cut out custom patterns. My Wife @Rana drew the impellers and picked out the fonts. We sent the drawing as a tif image and the font to Will who did some work to enhance our original and the cut out the mats.

We are extremely happy with the result!

Cool! I just wanted to confirm its a Hydro-Turf product. I like their products and will consider Will if I choose to do something with my interior.

That looks outstanding @Bruce ! Love the name too!

 

[Glassman]

Tremendous! Gives your boat a distinctive look Bruce.

I've been looking and looking, so many choices, designs, patterns , etc.

2 hours to get the old stuff off, huh? Not looking forward to that, but I gotta do it. My Hydro-Turf is looking pretty worn out.

Looks great! I'm going to add this mod (just the swim platform) to my 2015 list. I still like the carpet and have no issues. I do know what you mean about the snaps, the good thing is my wife and passengers don't know about the options (LOL). I do like the way you have the boat name in the hydro turf- I have my boat name on the back of the boat already. My idea is to add "No Shoes" / "No Shoes Allowed" (in a much smaller font) cuz I know people are tired of hearing me say it.

My only concern with doing the interior is getting cuts in the hydro from the water ski fins. I had a couple cuts on the last boat from them.

So this summer, I just have to watch one of my regular passengers who is proud of the fact that he doesn't have a boat cuz he has a friend with a boat and set him up to some how ding the existing hydro turf and guilt him into throwing in to repair/replace--LOL

That looks great Bruce!!! Very jealous.

 

[TechRider]

Looks awesome! Nice job. I like the custom logo! I debated on the logo, wanted to put Yamaha on there but Will said no because Yamaha gave him grief for it in the past.

I took this picture from two stories above today.

 

[Noko]

Looks nice. Just got my boat last week. This looks like something I will do.

 

[SCSTWG]

Looks great.

 

[JetBoatPilot]

Thanks @Bruce ! Looks great!

 

[Gym]

Looks great @Bruce. I was just wondering how many times you had to run up and down the stairs to reposition the boat to get that shot just right.
