As far as the 190, did you just mean the small area behind the rear sundeck?

Yup. The mini-step.

I would say that would be perfect for that small deck on the 190, Liquid. Especially with kids...I was always worried about my young nieces and nephews slipping as the climb up the ladder only to jump off again. SeaDek would help the slip issue. Would be an easy install too.

Now with my 262 (that has new carpet) what to do? With bare floors I saw how nasty everything gets even as fanatical as I am about keeping it clean. But I like the look and feel of carpet...

Knowing how nasty the carpet MUST be after a season I think for the next few years I'll take it out maybe around the 4th for a good cleaning with a power washer, and again at the end of the season.

I got my order in from Aquamarine the other day for the swimdecks. I also went ahead and got the pieces that go into the walkthrough and step down. I'm just waiting for a good weekend to install everything.

My only regret is I wish the Cobalt logo was larger and placed closer to the bottom instead of the middle. On the 262 the upper deck covers the extended deck just a bit. Ah well..

We are using these guys: https://scwake.com

So far pretty easy to deal with. Give them a call, assuming they dont have a template on file for a 190, first step will be to send you the template kit which will be about $20. Once you send them the completeated template they will be able to get you a cost on the deck pad.

a) we could use the current carpet to template
b) we wouldn't have to drill out and fill the resulting holes for the current snaps

The wife said adhesive.

So we will go adhesive.

I will most likely use the aquamarine link mentioned earlier.

I know it's a matter of taste, but I prefer the "teak look" with the teak lines running bow to stern (vs horizontally.)
