[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 475759, member: 13975"] I agree that I bet the UV really wears them down fast. If you store your boat covered that will obviously help greatly. I wonder would some type of Velcro system work for holding the mat down vs gluing it? May helping with thermal expansion and if the mat breaks down you can easily remove it, trace it, and place a new one in with a lot less work. I recently ordered a bunch of samples of the Nautolex and MariDeck vinyl and both look very nice. I'm flip flopping in my mind between using that and Hydroturf on my boat. I believe the vinyl will be slightly cheaper, easier to clean, and last longer but it offers zero cushion like the Hydroturf. I'm actually pondering using Hydroturf on the decks and vinyl on the flooring. [/QUOTE]
