I replaced mine with carpet from Lowes using waterproof outdoor carpet adhesive.

I have the same setup on my boat. I wanted to get rid of the rugs. They are getting moldy and starting to rip. Besides the teak wood is a pain. Yours came out very nice. I might try it. Can you tell me what that strip above your rod holders is made of. Mine is teak wood and I would like to replace it.

The rod holders in the pic had not been redone yet. I stripped the varnish, oiled them and replaced the bungies.

The aluminum is simply Taco marine trim

I installed it under the gunnels on a hewes redfisher that had the same setup. All you have to do is remove the old carpet and lightly sand off any remaining glue or residue left behind, then wipe clean with some acetone. After that it will bend or curve and adhere easily.

Seadek would work for that, I've seen a sample and it would be an easy install if you want to use it.

Just recieved samples of SeaDek. Now I have to wait till the weather warms up to measure how much square feet I have to cover.Thanks again for advice.
