What used to be slippery, hot, loud fiberglass is now comfortable, cool, and grippy. We design custom patterns, fabricate with CNC precision, and install at your dock with minimal downtime. We also remove old or failed flooring. ## Why SeaDek on a Miami Boat Bare fiberglass deck and cockpit surfaces in Miami have three problems: they are slippery when wet, hot enough to burn feet in August, and amplify every noise. SeaDek and similar EVA foam systems solve all three: - **Grippy when wet**: Closed-cell foam surface provides traction even fully submerged - **Stays cooler**: Reflects more heat than dark gelcoat or non-skid paint - **Sound-dampening**: Quieter cockpit, less drone at cruise - **Easier on knees and feet**: Soft enough to stand on all day without fatigue - **Looks great**: Custom patterns, brushed finishes, and logo inlays ## Where SeaDek Goes Most common install locations: - Cockpit sole and helm pad - Swim platform and dive door - Bow casting deck and raised forward seating - Gunwale and rub rail caps - Step treads and transom step - Tower pads for T-tops - Coaming bolsters - Full-coverage decks on center consoles ## Custom Pattern Design SeaDek comes in dozens of colors and brushed finishes. We work with you on pattern design: single-color simple, two-tone with accent seams, full color-blocked, or artistic patterns. Custom logo inlays (boat name, hull number, fishing team logo) are CNC-cut and inlaid into the main sheet. ## Installation Process 1. **Measurement and templating**: We template every surface to be covered. Complex curves get cardboard or paper mockups first. 2. **CNC fabrication**: Templates fed into CAD, cut on CNC. Precise fit, clean edges, no freehand trimming. 3. **Surface prep**: Every surface gets cleaned, solvent-wiped, and lightly scuffed for proper adhesion. 4. **Install**: Peel-and-stick adhesive with manufacturer-spec pressure applied. Small sheets roll on clean; large sheets require 2-person install to avoid bubbles. 5. **Cure and final trim**: Cure overnight, then any final trim work at edges and bevels. ## Old Flooring Removal Removing old or failing EVA flooring is messy work. Residual adhesive usually takes aggressive solvent and mechanical scraping to remove cleanly without damaging gelcoat underneath. We have the right solvents and technique to pull old SeaDek off without scarring the deck. ## Lead Time Custom patterns typically 2-3 weeks from template to install. Standard repeats (helm pad, swim platform) available sooner. We template first, fabricate, then schedule the dockside install once material is ready. Ready to upgrade your deck?

Miami SeaDek Installers ## Miami Sun Makes SeaDek Worth Every Penny A south-facing cockpit sole in Miami in August gets hot enough to burn bare feet. SeaDek drops the surface temperature significantly, which matters the hour you are on the water with kids or trying to stand in a cockpit all day. Our team has done SeaDek installs on everything from 17-foot skiffs to 60-foot sportfishers across the Miami area.

Heavily-used areas like step treads may need touch-up sooner. Failure usually shows as edge peeling, which is often repairable without full replacement. Not when installed properly. The adhesive is designed to release cleanly when removal is done with proper solvent. DIY removal with scrapers can scar gelcoat, which we avoid with correct technique. Yes in most cases. Non-skid diamond pattern surface bonds well with SeaDek adhesive after proper surface prep. Heavily textured or painted non-skid may need smoothing first. Soap and water. No special cleaners needed. Avoid solvent-based cleaners which can attack the foam. Pressure washers on low setting are fine. For deep cleaning, soft brush and mild detergent work best.
