Has anyoneinstalled a SeaDek swim deck pad? Looking into ordering one and have questions on how well it adheres and holds up. They have specs for a 220 (they list as a 22). Are there any other manufactures to check out?

Check w/Islandhopper/Mike, I'm pretty sure he has one on his 240DA.
 
I've got the teak look SeaDek on my '05 220 SD. It's awesome! I can't imagine trying to climb on to the swim deck with out it. I'll try to dig up a picture for you.
I cleaned my deck with acetone before I applied the SeaDek. I've had zero problems with it coming up. It will fade a bit, but not bad. My one complaint it that it will stain if you get oil on it (hamburger grease, suntan lotion, or motor oil). I have two dark spots about the size of a quarter that won't come up.

That looks great!

How hot does it get during the summer?

Thanks,

Mike

Not hot at all. My daughter lays out on it in direct sunlight. I can't emphasize enough how comfortable (and non-skid) this makes the swim platform.
 
I liked your pic so much I looked at the site... They don't show a template or price for my boat... I expect it would cost around $600... I will put it on my list... Right now, I am saving for gas, which will be this summer's limiting expense...
 
I too am looking at the Seadek material, I need to call them I guess because the website lists their template for the 220 sun deck as being for a 2007 year model. pchansen, I notice in your pictures that in addition to your swim platform you've got a strip on the passageway into the boat and a small piece on the nonskid on the port side just above the platform. Was that a custom option?

Thanks!

You can template just about anything (All my SeaDek was templated by me - mainly because of the addition of the grill mount). In addition to what you see in the pictures, I also have the foot pad at the helm and the anchor locker door at the bow covered.

Gotcha. That's really nice I really like the look you've got going there.

pchansen,
What type of mount is that. Was it a universal or brand specific? The plate you have is exactly what I am looking for to attach to the swim deck but want to make sure it will work with my grill. That being said also what type of pedestal leg and attachment do you have? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry I didn't respond earlier- didn't see the post. Anyway, it's the standard Magma BBQ pedestal mount. I think you can buy just the mount and leg and you should be able to fashion a way attach the leg to your BBQ.
 
Would you consider the Seadek product for replacing the snap in carpeting? I recently ordered a custom piece for the helm station area, but haven't received it yet.

I've thought about it as my carpet is the original from 2005. I can't figure out what to do with the male snaps that are screwed into the floor. I could take them out and fill the holes with epoxy or gelcoat or resin or whatever. I do a bit of fishing on the boat and it's nice to be able to remove the carpet for days when i might have a bloody fish flopping around on the floor. I'm leaning on just replacing the carpet with a slightly updated pattern from one of the carpet vendors. The price quote was about $410 if i remember correctly. This is the pattern I'm looking at. I think it will hide spills and small blemishes better than the off-white color I have now.



It's called Bayou Beige and it's from http://www.snapincarpet.com/products.cfm
It compliments the look and color of the SeaDek very nicely.

I purchased the Bayou Beige for my boat last year--get lots of compliments on it. You don't see it on too many boats and anything beats the old Sea Ray "honey" Berber!

And, yes, it does hide dirt, stains and spilled Bourbon very well!
 
Good to know! Thanks for the info! Did you buy it from snapincarpet.com?
