Boy could I ever use the Hydroturf or Aquamat..!! I can feel the pain all over again...slipping, stubbing toes, banged up elbows and the list goes on!

Oh where, oh were, did you get your set and how much did you pay?

Looks good by the way.!

I wouldn't even recommend AquaMats, but no I am not sure how much they run. Yes the HydroTurf comes in a large variety of colors.

My Turf is here but I missed the UPS guy so I will have to wait until Monday. Oh well, boat is in storage anyway so I can't put it in.

Hey Kevin, any tips or tricks for installing the Hydroturf? I did get the 3M backing which cost me a bit more for shipping but hopefully its worth it, I took your suggestion.

I bet you can't wait to get it out of storage.
Good luck on the installation. Becareful when you lay the hydro-turf down with the 3M backing because if you have to pick it back up to re-position it the glue may come off the hydro-turf. That is the worst I have seen as far as installation. Oh, and don't forget to clean the surface really good.

Best of luck!

Just make sure you clean the surface that you are sticking the turf to really well so that you get a good bond. Make sure you put it down very lightly until you have it placed right were you want it, don't put any pressure on it until you are satisfied with its position. Once you get it exactly where you want it beat is down with either your fist or a soft rubber mallet, once it is stuck down it ain't coming back up easily. I would recommend getting someone to help you with the larger pieces as the one that goes over the ski locker is kind of tricky to position.

I took ALL the pieces out of the box....sigh....sigh..... I can see this is gonna take sometime and some TLC. Oh well.....I am sure I will lay the turf the first day I get the boat out. The guy I dealt with was Cody from Hydroturf and he threw in some stickers so I could do some advertising for them.

Anyway gotta go look at my hydroturf again......it makes me feel like she will be coming home soon!

Ciao....

Kevin, How much did the hydro turf cost?  How does it feel on your feet?

Speedster (00-03), Speedster SK (00)
Increase the safety and beauty of your jet boat by adding Hydro-Turf traction mats. Kits are designed to cover most textured areas on the interior floor, boarding platform and foot rests. Add 3M self-adhesive for an additional $75.

Price $249.95

Manufacturer Sea-Doo

Part Number SD12

Link: Hydro-Turf

I got the 3M self-adhesive for the extra $75, I highly recommend getting it like this as it is much easier to install.

It feels excellent, I can't believe every DOO doesn't have this stuff in it!

P.S. - I believe Jenny can also vouche for the Hydro-Turf in my DOO as she slipped one time hopping onto the back platform before I had the turf in. One of the reasons why I invested in the turf after that happened.

Hydroturf feels great! very insulated and soft to your feet.. reminds me of a styrofoam material and provides grip even when it is wet..

that was a bad fall ouch...

Cool, I am glad you got your turf. It will make a huge difference one you get it in the boat, I know you are excited. I could believe how much it did for my boat after I got it all laid down!

Kevin

I have sent for a few of the grey color samples.

How about durability and clean up. Looks like it would be a mess to remove so I would like to know it will be down for a while and not have to replace it.

Does it come clean and how is your holding up?
