In this video I discuss how I went about installing Aqua Marine Deck EVA Foam decking into the cockpit area of my Triton bass boat. EVA foam decking is a closed cell foam that doesn't absorb water, so it should be a much dryer and cleaner option instead of old marine carpet. The marine carpet I had in this location used to stay wet for a week or so after using it, especially if I put the boat in the garage afterwards. This solution should provide much better drainage and won't hold the water, not to mention it just looks great and feels great on my feet.

Do you have video on bow instal for aqua marine decking

[@InstinctBassin]

Hi, I do not. I only put it in my cockpit area. You can order a template kit though and do a self install following the same concepts. Happy to help. You can also contact me at [e-mail] for more info.

How much would be be to do the same area as you on a 1991 ranger 492v?

[@InstinctBassin]

Probably around $400

[@chadschlichting3661]

Sure, seems like a pain in the but, I can't believe that with today's technology that you just can't give them your make and model and what you're looking for and they ship out what you want. And this goes for all of them not just this company.

[@InstinctBassin]

But you definitely can, they just don’t have many bass boats that have been measured. Same goes for most companies. 🤙🏼 But yeah maybe with AI, you’ll be able to just tell them the boat make and model.

[@TheAverageAngler]

You can. There are other brands that you just give them your model and year. I just got mine and it fits perfectly. Again different brand.

[@M4established]

300 sounds like a smoking deal

[@InstinctBassin]

I should say that is for that one sheet, not the entire boat 🤙🏼
