That looks awesome! Did you do the job yourself? What was the final cost? Any issues with fitment or pieces?

I started to do it myself and got 6 pieces attached then took it down to jetboatpilot (I'm only about an hour and a half away from his store). There was a small mix-up in the pieces so he got it straightened out and installed for me. I highly recommend doing it yourself - it's very easy, but also very tedious getting it lined up perfectly. There was no issue with fitting of the pieces that I did. My total cost was $840 with the 30% discount.

@blackhawkpilot I have to admit, I have a very serious case of ASP platform extension envy!

That looks Awesome! I just bought SeaDek for our new boat and planned to install myself. If ours comes out looking like yours I'll be thrilled!

About the only thing I use it for is the extra real estate on the swim platform.

That looks amazing, makes me wish I didn't spend money for the "Beach Weave" carpet upgrade, lol. Could have put that money into this!

Looks really great. Trying to think of any downsides to doing this, but can't really think of any. Maybe washing a lot of sand / mud out of the boat, but even that shouldn't be too hard. I ordered the snap in beach weave carpet which I hope is decent quality as I didn't get a chance to see it before ordering. One question, what did you do about all the snap / buttons on the fiberglass. Did you remove them or does the seadeck have little indents to "take-in" the snap so it doesn't leave a lump from the top side?

Yes, you have to remove the snaps and fill the wholes, most people use 5200 3M.

Some of the snaps were screwed in, others I had to pop out with a flat-head screwdriver. Wasn't hard. I didn't do the whole install, but the ones I did install, I filled in the holes.
