Great job as with most projects patience is a must. I have used similar products before. I am getting ready to do same to my 17’ skiff mine is semi vee traditional Work style boat ( Eastern NC work skiff) with a well for setting nets or working crab pots. Looks like you got the seal of approval from your number 1 fan! You also earned mine! Thumbs Up!!! Have a blessed day!!
Nice job! I agree the "getting" with it and thought process is nerve racking! I'm doing my first boat and over thinking every thing but is slowly coming together. A very nice project and your young man give ten figers up so all is well, congrats and thanks for sharing.
As we say in Texas.."good enough for the girls we go with". Looks great hoss. Thanks for the video. P.S. don't say that in front of the wife, they don't see the humor in it. Lol.
LOOKS AWESOME DERRICK, and thanks for the video and link to this product, I am definately doing this to my Whaler too, it makes it look so good, and very usefull in all aspects, good job!!!
To make the ruler and any other insert detail easier, lay out the larger sheets first, and tape them together. Flip it upside down, and cut the backer material around the ruler. This way when you peel the backer off, you can leave the area with the ruler intact. Then mark and cut out the ruler, and it should fit perfectly.
Just a tip for people watching who plan to do the same. It’s not recommended to try to seam pieces, you’re better off leaving a 1/2” gap. Like the bow pieces would be fine with the gap and would look better with a gap around the edges and ruler
My battery is in the console. I figured that area would be easier to keep clean without the foam. I’ve never really had any issue with noise from the tank moving around luckily
Guy's he did a great job laying that down. Sadly he will be pealing it back up right about now a year later. This stuff falls apart fast dyes tree un you need extra adhesive and boy is it fun trying to get the adhesives back off. Buy the expensive stuff it's worth it in the end for the amount of prep and labor you have to do.
As of now there is a corner on the deck that has pulled up a little but its still 95% good to go. The worst part is that it looks like it shrunk a little so the seams are showing a little more.
I think it looks awesome and if you take someone fishing, and they say to you, that one side is darker than the other, you kick their ass right off that boatLol
May have been a slight exagerration. This is the stuff I used amzn.to/3JdPtfN I'm happy with it, so far haven't had any issues and it was super easy to install.
do you dont see color coming out the foam every time is wet ? i install the same and every time i goat boating is a nightmare red color from it, is everywhere bags cloth and all over the boat i hate it men trying to figure it out if you experience the same problem
I'll try to get an update video make soon. One corner of a piece on the front deck did come up a little, looks like it actually shrunk a little in the cold, nothing a little adhesive wont fix, aside from that it's still good.
Sorry for the delay just saw this, it's held up really well, hasn't faded or discolored. One corner of the seam on the bow pulled up a little but a couple dabs of some sort of adhesive should easily hold it back down. It's not even enough to trip over so I haven't really worried too much about it. Thanks for the compliment
Hey man, what did you use to repaint it? My grandpas that I’m fixing up has been sitting up year around for 15 years not covered. Could you tell me the exact paint you used?
How did you find the stickiness of the adhesive? Ive heard people say to use adhesion promoter. Im especially interested in how its holding up now. Im rebuilding my grandfathers wood jon and Im painting it with enamel.
I haven’t had any issues. I guess depending on the surface adhesion promoter wouldn’t be a bad idea but we’ve taken it out several times in the heat of the summer and it’s still holding strong for me. My boat stays in the barn when we’re not using it though so that will no doubt will help it last longer.
It’s hard to see the texture in the video but it’s a textured rubber foam so it’s actually pretty grippy. I have some throw cushions under the console we use if we’re gonna be riding for a while lol
All of it shrunk up a little bit, the seams are definitely more noticeable now and on the the panels on the bow started to peel up so it did have to be glued back down. All in all I’m still happy with it for the cost though.
This would probably be the case for any foam flooring. What adhesive did you use for the spot repairs and how does it seem to be holding up? Thanks for being the point man on this!
Thanks for the kind words, my little boy definitely approves. I just posted an update video yesterday if you want to watch but yes the edges are good, some of the seam lines are a little more visible. Here's a link to the foam I used amzn.to/3Nn6OU7

35x94 roll is what I got because it was the widest they had available. Ended up using two rolls and had a good bit leftover which is why I did the cooler and the console seat and stuff too.

Never been here before but the algorithm brought me, I like the deck ! Looks great
I wish that algorithm would bring a bunch more lol thanks I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.
@@derrickcassel you're not in South Carolina by chance are you ?

Thanks for the kind words! I have a tendency to overthink on my projects and they don’t really start coming together until I just get after it lol
As we say in Texas.."good enough for the girls we go with". Looks great hoss. Thanks for the video. P.S. don't say that in front of the wife, they don't see the humor in it. Lol.
😂 nicely said lol
My favorite saying. Thinking about naming my boat "good enough"😂
Great work! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
Looks great. I want to put that on my bass boat restoration.
Luckily I didn't have to deal with pulling up carpet or anything but I've been happy with it so far.
That looks awesome! Great job on the little details, too.
Thanks!
LOOKS AWESOME DERRICK, and thanks for the video and link to this product, I am definately doing this to my Whaler too, it makes it look so good, and very usefull in all aspects, good job!!!
Glad to help! I just posted an update video now that it's been on there for a little while and all is still good on it!
I am a Journey man linoleum installer (since 1964)..There are easier methods, but I think you did a pretty good job!
As easy as this was it's hard to believe it could've been much easier lol thanks

Good tip. I’d say I did it the hard way but I’m still happy with it and it wasn’t too difficult
Turned out really good
Great job⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🙌🙌 this video saved me from making any mistake you earned a new subscriber.
Thanks! Just out of curiosity what was the mistake you almost made?
I like you gave me answers I needed thanks
You’re welcome. Took it out today and plan on posting another video showing how it’s holding up this week.
I be watching for it
@@johnfugate3432 here you go buddy

This is my kind of video. I’m pretty handy with projects and take similar approaches, just kind of get into it.
Yeah man, sometimes I gotta just work through things.
Great job
The deck turned out nice 👍🏾
Thanks! I'm happy with it

I wish I had a boat like that.
I've had it for as long as I can remember, it's been a good boat.
I’m doing this on my 16 DLX soon and this was a great video… also love the S2K!!
Was a fun project and definitely worth the hassle for me. Thanks, I love that thing, been dailying it since I bought it.
A friend of mine used to have an s2k that looked very similar to that one.. you didn’t happen to buy it from a guy named Will did you?
Looks nice and you have to keep those babies safe, that is first and foremost.
That's right. If more people felt the way the world would be a better place.
Good job
Thanks
Good job and can I suggest putting some of that padding where the gas tank and battery goes to help with noise and vibration on the deck.
My battery is in the console. I figured that area would be easier to keep clean without the foam. I’ve never really had any issue with noise from the tank moving around luckily
You can use a router and route the edges to give it the finished look.
I've seen where people do that and definitely thought about it. Might do it later on down the road still
Looks good .
Thanks!
NICE, GOOD JOB .
Thanks!

You can’t really see it in person lol but I’ll keep that in mind
6000 degrees? That's really warm... looks really good, what is the product again?
May have been a slight exagerration. This is the stuff I used amzn.to/3JdPtfN
I'm happy with it, so far haven't had any issues and it was super easy to install.
@@derrickcassel thank you sir!
Smiling from Arizona
Turned out very nice I just didn’t catch if you said what the material is called. Besides knock off sea deck.
Sorry just saw your comment, its EVA foam. There's a link in the description to the stuff I used from Amazon.
C’mon man! go all the way to the back before your friends ask you why you didn’t finish it. Nice work
Lol I figured that back area would get stained up and nasty since that’s where I keep my fuel tank
do you dont see color coming out the foam every time is wet ? i install the same and every time i goat boating is a nightmare red color from it, is everywhere bags cloth and all over the boat i hate it men trying to figure it out if you experience the same problem
Derrick, how many & size sheets did you purchase? Thanks for the content
Sorry just saw your comment, I ordered two of the 94x16 rolls in the description and had a good bit leftover.
하늘도 깨끗하고 보트도 멋지네요
how many 94" by 35 " roles did you use I notice the kits about 1600 bucs i assume you're around 200 bucs be interested to know though
Is there any update on long-term use of the EVA FOAM, did it start to peel?
I'll try to get an update video make soon. One corner of a piece on the front deck did come up a little, looks like it actually shrunk a little in the cold, nothing a little adhesive wont fix, aside from that it's still good.

How cheap was it
Looks super nice, How has it held up?
Sorry for the delay just saw this, it's held up really well, hasn't faded or discolored. One corner of the seam on the bow pulled up a little but a couple dabs of some sort of adhesive should easily hold it back down. It's not even enough to trip over so I haven't really worried too much about it. Thanks for the compliment
So how is it holding up think about doing my boat.
Had one corner peel up a little on the front deck but a little extra adhesive and it’s good to go, still very happy with it
Hey man, what did you use to repaint it? My grandpas that I’m fixing up has been sitting up year around for 15 years not covered. Could you tell me the exact paint you used?
I used rustoleum top coat and bottom paint from lowes. Cheap and works really well.
Looks awesome. How’s it holding up?
Pretty good, had one spot in the middle of the front deck start to peel up a little but a little bit of extra adhesive goes a long way to fix it.
How did you find the stickiness of the adhesive? Ive heard people say to use adhesion promoter. Im especially interested in how its holding up now. Im rebuilding my grandfathers wood jon and Im painting it with enamel.
I haven’t had any issues.

@@derrickcassel I appreciate the response. Mine will also be kept in a garage with not in use. Imma go for it. Thanks!
That stuff looks smooth, what makes it non-slip? Also, I'd have some custom seat padding made, at least the inch or two for comfort.
(I'm old, lol)
It’s hard to see the texture in the video but it’s a textured rubber foam so it’s actually pretty grippy. I have some throw cushions under the console we use if we’re gonna be riding for a while lol
@@derrickcassel
Excellent, I forgot to mention it looks super good, professional.👍
Looks good….do you boat in fresh or salt water. . Was wondering how it’s holding up?
Hasn't been in salt water in years but hoping to change that soon, as of now it's still holding strong.
How has this held up over the year?
Pretty good, had one spot in the middle of the front deck start to peel up a little but a little bit of extra adhesive goes a long way to fix it.
After 1 year , does it still stick to the floor ?
All of it shrunk up a little bit, the seams are definitely more noticeable now and on the the panels on the bow started to peel up so it did have to be glued back down. All in all I’m still happy with it for the cost though.
This would probably be the case for any foam flooring. What adhesive did you use for the spot repairs and how does it seem to be holding up? Thanks for being the point man on this!
Forgot to ask ( what particular brand did you use? And have edges stayed down and in place?
Thank You!
Thanks for the kind words, my little boy definitely approves. I just posted an update video yesterday if you want to watch but yes the edges are good, some of the seam lines are a little more visible. Here's a link to the foam I used amzn.to/3Nn6OU7
@@derrickcassel way to go Dad at the end of the day the things we do for our kids make up wonderful memories as we grow old thru life with them!!
How is the Eva holding up?
Had one corner spot on the front deck come up a little but a little extra adhesive and it’s good to go. Still very happy with it for the money
How is it a year later?
Still holding up okay, the seams are showing a little more and part of the deck did peel up a little but a little of adhesive and it was an easy fix.
How well is this lasting? Lifting at all or holding tight?
Meant to make an update video, overall still holding pretty strong but there is a corner on the deck that has pulled up a little bit it’s nothing a little bit of adhesive can’t fix.
How is the adhesive holding up?
So far so good. Planning on posting another video this week since we took it out today.
1000° you must be in Texas
North Florida, it’s like Texas but with all the humidity lol
Where can I find a middle seat like that?
The console seat? It was in the boat when we got it but I’m sure something like it can’t be too hard to find, just need the right measurements for your boat.
What brand of material was it....
Here's a link to the stuff I used. Not sure how to pronounce that lol. amzn.to/3Nn6OU7
I keep hearing horror stories that these knock off products don’t hold up well it real life use. How has it worked out for you after a year of use?
Sorry just saw your comment havent been on here in a while. One corner on the deck has peeled up a little but it's still mostly holding strong..
How big of a roll did you get ?
35x94 roll is what I got because it was the widest they had available. Ended up using two rolls and had a good bit leftover which is why I did the cooler and the console seat and stuff too.
Hey man blur your trucks plates. Just saying
I always wondered why people do that.. Worried about someone finding it and stealing it?
@@derrickcassel I always wondered that too, maybe the wackos can find out where you live? lol
what boat is that?
it's a Carolina Skiff J14
Good job
