Re: Replacing carpeted flooring with HydroTruf?

Replacing carpeted flooring with HydroTruf?
The trim is on there pretty good with glue. It's not much of a headache to work around. I removed all the screws holding the seat bases to the floor and then used a pry bar to lift the bases about 1/2 inch up. Then I put a 1/2 inch thick piece of lumber under the brackets that hold the seat bases to the floor. After removing the carpet and with the 1/2 inch lift from the lumber there's a nice sized gap that the Hydro can slide under the molding with out having to touch it.

Put the HydroTurf down on the rear bench seat this morning. One thing you have to really do is square up the sheets because their not square AT ALL!!
My cuts are a little crooked. Started with the bench though because most all the cuts are under the seat and folded around the edges so they won't be seen. Because of the size of the sheet I did have seams on the side of the bench but those won't be seen while in the boat so I'm not too worried plus the seam came out all right.
Going to need new vinyl now.Last edited by Rakkasan; 09-27-2014 at 01:02 PM.

How are all the other gaps? If you have a carpenters square put it in the corners and make sure there all 90 degree angles. Check the gap towards the VDrive and see if it's really tight on the same side.
You could always pull all the screws out and try to realign the covers. The screws just go right into the fiberglass. There's no hole specifically drilled for each screw. It almost like they just drop the plates down and screw them down.
There's 4 screws per cover and would take about 2mins to pull them up, not hard at all.
If you need some up close pics of something let me know and I'll try and help out.2008 LSV on the way out

Turns out my whole floor is out of whack. Add that up to more QC issues. I don't think I could ever buy another Moomba if they are made the same way now as they were in 06.
I kind of made do by spinning it around putting the gap in the center and stuffing a strip of carpet it. Looks ghetto. But less ghetto then a gap.

Replacing carpeted flooring with HydroTruf?
WOW!! That is pretty bad. It looks alright like that. My gaps are fine but when I add the two covers back I'm going to try and bolt the two together and make them into one solid piece. If you ever wanted to recover I'd do that so as to possibly eliminate to gap. Maybe
