Where to buy marine carpet, or any other suggestions for lining the deck

Guys

I need to source a good place for purchasing some new carpet for the deck of a boat. Could you advise me of where is a good place? Or alternatively, provide me with some information on what other coverings perform well on deck?

Cheers

If your around the malaga area at all, pop into the shop, we have some very heavy duty marine carpet here, very thick and has drainage slots in and rubber knobs on the back side to help allow for drainage.selling for $38 p/m which is the price of more lesser quality carpets, this is a very long lasting carpet too

When i bought my runabout last year (for sale now http://fishwrecked.com/node/22343 ) it had astro turf on the deck and dash. Not my cup of tea but it worked like a charm. I did pull it up though.

TREADGRIP

Thu, 2009-05-28 17:07

I put Treadgrip on my deck, it's a water based rubberised paint. Two coats will do the job, better than carpet as it does not rott and stink, easy to clean and comfortable to stand on all day

These guys are on the corner of Royal street and Cooper Ave in Kenwick. I needed purple which i couldn't get ANY WHERE.  He had a huge range of colours and got it in by the next day. Cost was $44 per metre. Bill was really helpful and had a equally large range of upolstery to match. His number is  0412474123. Good Luck
