Yeah thats where I first saw this product being used on autos. I got to thinking how great this stuff would be on a boat since its hydrophobic. I know salt water is a harsh environment, thats why I'm trying to get someone with personal experience before forking out money on a product that may or...

I am extremely interested if anyone has ever used this on their boats and what their thoughts are on this? Mainly, someone who keeps their boat in saltwater year round. If it does what it claims to do, this stuff is pretty amazing. http://www.ceramicproamericas.com/marine/ I got a quote from an...

this is the synthetic teak carpet in our bridge, compared to a sample of Nuteak. Very hard to dinstiguish. We plan on installing the Nuteak in the cockpit/stairs soon.

we have the same teak carpet in our bridge and love it. the only reason we decided not to go with it in the cockpit/stairs is because of how slippery it is when wet. Be very careful when it gets wet! Before installing, we had about a sqare foot sample of it and put it on the platform. One...

http://www.nuteak.com/nuteak-dealers-distributors Mr. Jimmy is a great guy! I watched his crew install nuteak on a hatteras sport fish and boy it looked nice! He gave us a sample, it looks great, does not get hot (as hot as I was told it would get) and is low maintenance. If someone drops an...

I have talked to a Plasdeck dealer, he said the CoolTeak is made out of the same material as the other synthetic teak that Plasdeck carries, only difference is that it is lighter in color. We just finished up making a template for our cockpit and stairs, and will be sending it off to Plasdeck...

Here on the gulf coast the hose always gets red algae inside, and always flush it out with some bleach. What is the best water filter to use for shore water? what do y'all use?

Alex, what synthetic teak did you go with? Does it get very hot in the summer sun? Thanks!

The carpet in our cockpit needs to be replaced and we are debating on whether to go back with the carpet or try the synthetic teak (preferably the cool teak by plasdeck). On the website it says panels only. Do any of y'all have any experience with synthetic teak? How hard was it to install? How...

most likely heading out to ship island for the weekend! Thankful for all the military that have fought and are still fighting for our freedom!

anyone know where to find the bulb numbers for the cockpit, stairs and bridge lights? thanks

At how many hours should you change the timing belts on these Cats? Fixing to move the boat next week and going over a few things before the run. I checked them out and they seem fine just curious! Thanks, Shane
