SeaDek Custom Marine Flooring

SeaDek’s custom fit marine flooring is the next evolution of cool feet and clean boats. SeaDek uses a premium PE/EVA foam blend that’s incredibly comfortable underfoot, stays cool in full sun, and looks great even after years of use. And with snap-on/snap-off application and removal, it’s easier than ever to clean your boat by taking your flooring out and washing separately. We tried it this summer and loved both the feel of it and how it accentuated our test boat’s colour scheme. With multiple colours and fully custom fits available, you can get the perfect non-slip flooring for your vessel that won’t stain from messes made by fishing or lunch. Even better, SeaDek offers fully personalized custom kits with unique logos, text, and laser art, so your boat will look better than ever!
