Gents - where can I buy the clear film that is applied on back of boat right above the swim platform. Looking to protect that area from surf boards hitting it. Thanks

Was under the impression there were pre-formed films you could purchase specific to your boat?

Not aware of anyone doing precut, this stuff is easy to cut to any shape you want.

Take some measurements for width and order the max width you need and trim the rest.

Good idea. I wonder how it would work on the front of the hull, where it contacts the trailer roller. The roller leaves scuff marks over time. WOnder if this would hold up?

Film works great for any high traffic surfaces. Try it and if you don’t like it, it peels off.

Cheap insurance.

A good thought. They make these for the bow also.

Ended up going with matching sea Deck on the transform above the swim platform to protect it from surf boards hitting this area. Came out great. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210805/02af99cb09edc34df86c21cb7d25c215.jpg

Bit of a pain to install as I did it while boat was on my lift…but it turned out great. Really like it.

Look up “Surftoys” on Facebook, see below, Shane is the owner. I’m in Dallas and he is local. He is right by the Moomba dealer and went up there and took all the measurements. I have my boat on a lake about an hour away. He likely still has all the measurements if you want to reference my order. Give him my name, Mark Campbell. We did entire transaction over Facebook messenger and a phone call or two. Charged me $148 including shipping.
