Replacing carpeted flooring with HydroTruf?

[parrothd]

I don't remember it getting hot, warm yes, I've always had black hydro so the Grey should be fine..

Well all done. Pretty happy with the results. As for those asking if it gets hot well.... YES IT DOES. I've been in the boat all day finishing up the hydro, 89degrees, full sun, and no clouds. I stopped for lunch and went back out to finish up and couldn't tell which was hotter the vinyl or the hydro. Tip toe hot.

I can imagine however if you were jumping in and out of the water than it should be ok.

I think that is where DECKadence or miners moss is really beneficial. I don't think it holds the heat as much being weaved mesh? I do like the looks of the hydro, seadek, softgrip floors though. Nice and clean installs. You guys need to report back in a year or 2 on how they hold up.

Mine came in today..

That really looks sweet. Maybe it is my eyes but is the one section installed in the wrong direction?

I'd tell everyone you installed that section in that direction so the water flows to the center, then back towards the rear. Looks awesome!

Well after putting down two coats of bed liner in the rear lockers I didn't like how it looked with all weird dents and bumps on the floor. So I just used the rest of my hydro and put a strip in the middle to kind of break it up. All most done just need some trim and after putting the engine doors back in I'll be all done and ready for the season.

what did you use where the carpet meets the hydroturf? that black seal looking stuff

also, does anyone have dimensions of the rear storage lockers off hand? just approximate? length and width for ordering sheets of hydroturf.

I had the bed liner on the bottom and cut up two inches on the sides so the water could move out and not soak the carpet on the sides. That's the black you see on the first pics. When I put down the hydro I added a two inch strip of molded diamond on the sides just to tie it all togeather.

The size of the lockers are approx 50" long and 26" wide.

ahh ok, i see now what you did.. thanks for the response! how did you glue it down? and do you think it will stop water from getting below the hydroturf and getting mouldy?
