Anyone have hydro turf in your boat? I am thinking about putting some on the front and rear deck of my boat. http://www.hydro-turf.net/

Have it and it is da shizzle, worth every penny IMO ! I did my 18' tunnel for $200 and don't think it is expensive.

I've got it in mine. I really like it. Cost me $140 for four sheets and I had a bit left over in a 1548 flat.

Josh, I am no math major but it is roughly 1/4" thick and has 3M high TACK adhesive backing. Once you stick it don't try to reposition cause it ain't going anywhere. Wish I would have gone the dummy route and taken my floor out and positioned the floor on the turf and come back and punched the holes but it is down now. PM me and I will give you my address if you want to see what it looks like in person or walk on it.

Raymond

My paudna's new boat has this stuff and it's quite amazing! I think it would be a good investment. Aside from traction inside the boat, it would work as a good sound dampener for those of us in aluminum boats.

Here's where I got mine from: http://hydroturf.com/products.php?ca...f%20Hydro-Turf

I bought the diamond pattern. Mine was supposed to have defects, but I don't see anything wrong with it. I bought it without the glue on it already.
