Vinyl temp question

[Bigs28]

Dealer has a new max coming in in a few weeks. Interior is black vinyl. I live in south Florida and was wondering if the vinyl moomba uses gets hot. I don't want to be throwing buckets of water all over the boat to change seats.

Any thoughts would be great.

Thanks

Yes it does get hot.

Take a cushion, set it in the sun in the parking lot for 15 min and use an IR gun to read it.

Yes my waverunner gets super hot but i know they have cool touch vinyls and stuff that helps. Just didn't know how moombas vinyl handled the heat.

Moomba does not offer chill tech vinyl, Supra does.

Ouch. The back of my legs are burning just thinking about that. I think it's "Laminated Vinyl w/ Stain Resistant Topcoat".
Better stuff vs what was used years ago on the older models for all boat makers.

Look at a newer Supra. Chill Tech Vinyl was released in 2019

I cant imagine a dealer in FL ordering all-black interior on non-chill tech vinyl... you would literally have to have towels laid out everywhere to even walk, sit, touch anything.

That dealer might be sitting on that one for a while...unless the boats outside and then he won't be able to

You will have towels covering every seating surface 247 imo....

Our boat is new and not chill vinyl... even our grey in the summer sun bakes ya....

Northern climates not as big a deal but southern....

Yea that’s going to be blazing hot! My light graphite gets hot AF so black is likely much worse lol.

There isn’t an option for an all black interior on a Max...I assume you mean the dark graphite/light graphite?

Regardless the dark graphite areas will get hot...but not like all black..The light graphite areas should be ok.

Back rests black, bow filler cushion black, front of cushion towards your knees black, about 75% of the rear sun deck was black.
