The hull itself is sound, a few dings reasonable with its age but over all good and she'll be nice once I give her a good scrub. My question is if any one has any experience using a deck covering such Dekit or something similar? On the forward platform that is raised over the actual hull I have some spider cracking in the non-skid and was thinking an easy fix could be to cover it. This is my first boat so I'm fairly new to restoration and was just looking for some opinions or previous experiences. Thanks!

I light sanded the deck, washed it and pulled off the backing paper and applied it. I used different sizes, 38" X 16", 12"X 4", 6" X 13". People have told me, it is really soft to their feet and also is a non-skid. It is easy to keep clean and also comes in many colors. It solves the problem for me. seadek.com Edited by wrangler on 07/11/21 - 3:16 AM
