I'm going to replace the pad on my platform and was looking to order some Hydro Turf but there are many places that sell it and the prices range is pretty wide - what places has everyone used that are good quality for a good price?

TIA

I got mine from PWC Muscle. Ask for a "forum discount". I went with the b-stock and saved a lot of money. the imperfections were subtle and not a big deal to me. it's hard to even find imperfections on some sheets. They can get anything, even if it's not on their website.

I went a different route with Blacktip mats. It is closed cell on the top so I figure it will be more resistant to mold, dirt and so on. Back in my days of surf riding stand up jet skis in the ocean a lot of guys were using it.
I am only one season in so far but it is holding up great so far on my HDPE platform. I am going to be using it in the boat as well but not on the floor.

This also looks like a good option - thanks for sharing

The diamond plate is really cool looking. I am thinking about replacing the carpet in the back hatch area of the Suburban with that.

I really like the look of this stuff and with the sheet size they have I could do the whole platform with a single sheet without too much excess for $60 including the PSA that is INCLUDED in that same price. I asked them to send me some samples so just waiting on that right now.

Not a bad idea. I have Weathertech in the back of my Expedition. More expensive but it is tough as nails. I abuse it pretty well and it holds up.

After doing mine I had a ton left over. I know exactly where I will be using it.
