Carpet In A Bass Boat Is A TERRIBLE IDEA! (Seadek Review)

- I have been fortunate to fish out of my @XpressBoats1966 X-21 for several months now, and one thing that I have fell in love with is the @SeaDekVideosandProducts flooring. Decided to do a review video and answer a few questions that I get asked a lot about the flooring. Hope you guys enjoy. Drop any questions you have in the comments!

![SEADEK 9 MONTHS LATER ON BOAT..... [HOW DOES IT HOLD UP?]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/qhrWv55cdjA/mqdefault.jpg)
I brought this argument up with basscat and they jumped my shit saying it wouldn't hold up in high traffic areas. Now we all know that it boils down to they just don't want to have to finish the lids out better in order to run the seadek.
Great video! My next boat will have Seadek, I called yesterday about the same Xpress 21’ boat! 16 plus weeks, not as bad a wait as I expected! Thanks for the review!
Did it come in?
My Z521 is getting it all over this winter!! Can’t wait on boats and pros!
Great video, love my seadek! The spray Xpress uses on the gunnel also doesn’t get hot at all in the heat of the day. Where can I find an Xpress hat like that, have searched all over.
Thanks for the review, I want to put it in my cockpit in my ranger.
Hey Luke! Don’t TH make the Chill pad for a Garmin trolling motor foot pedal?
Would love it in my boat my carpet is shot to say the least,if you go sea deck will it effect the compartments?
One of the main reasons I upgraded last year from a 2012 to 2021 was sea dek. So tired of cleaning carpet and taking 3 days to dry. Wash sea dek and 15 minutes later it dry.
I have the h17 with the lighter colored seadek. And almost everything will come out, but I have a few stains I can't get out. If you get it go with the color he has.
Dude love this keep it up take no shit awesome brother.
I always will want padded carpet on the front deck for noise, and for absorbing rain while driving. I love seadeck on the cockpit, back deck and in the rod lockers though.
If you let it get mildewed I bet it would get slick when wet but I’m def doing this to my boat. I’m gonna start with doing the bottom part where the seats are.
Beautiful love it 👍
Hey Luke, can you tell us the complete boat/trailer/gas/equipment package weight for your boat?
Luke how about the chartreuse tail dye. Better than carpet??
Around how much did it cost you to do your sea deck with all the designs and CNC routing?
Taking my wife to look at x21 this weekend see what she thinks of it. As a boat for us to have for the family. Still a year out or more before I get one but holding out for one for sure.
That’s awesome! I fish 4 out of mine a lot. It’s got plenty of room that’s for sure.
I want the exact set up, what are the prices like and can I apply it myself?
The only knock I have on seadeck is it doesn't look as quiet to walk on as carpet. Not sure that makes much if any difference to the fish but it's one of those things I think about.
I am in the market and Xpress is on my list. I wonder is Sea Deck an option for inside the rod lockers too? If I remember the rod boxes and storage boxes are carpeted.
I’m getting spaghetti matting in mine
I’m redoing a 2003 Nitro Savage and I’m going with EVA foam instead of carpet. I’ve had so many people argue that carpet is better but I don’t care, I’ve ran it on my Jon boats and bay boats with zero issues.. I’ll never go back to carpet again. Blows my mind you’d want something that holds moisture all over your deck and then years later you wonder why your decks are soft
Hey mate. Question please. I am getting seadek with the same pattern as yours and almost same color as well because my boat is green.
Question: how come your logo is red and black? Is that another color set just in that piece? My logo is black and red too! Hahaha coincidence 🤓
Love my seadeck 👍🏻
Do the storage boxes stay dry?
I build and restore boats. Here in the Midwest this stuff it just getting a foothold. The boats I’ve seen come in for restoration with any kind of EVA flooring are more times than not, going back to carpet. This stuff doesn’t hold up well at all and is too expensive to replace every two years. Great for decorative places but heavy west areas looks horrible in a couple years. We had one boat come in, it was a Triton that was sea decked three years ago and it was shredded do to hooks and general wear. There was one place up near the trolling motor that looked like someone pushed off from the deck and it ripped up and this was actual Sea Deck. Great looking in the beginning but doesn’t last in my opinion. Best of luck to you all. 20 ounce marine carpet is still my go to for most all the boats I redo.
Where do you buy your 20oz carpet from. Thanks
Did I just see LD do a one foot jig dance on wet seadek?
I’m trying to find somebody that has one an xpress to see if I like the ride.
For split second….when you mentioned getting goldfish on you floor, I thought you were talking about using live bait!!….😂
Hahahaha dude I thought about that as I was editing
Gold fish make excellent bait for flatheads
I thought the same thing too
Like
My question is when your running with the deck wet, is water blowing in your face. Carpet holds the water, what about the sea dek??
Luke has some purdy toes ….. lol 😂
will sea deck improve the grip of my worn out crocks with the slick bottoms?
LOL
good video
Hahaha I don’t know if it can help those. You might as well be walking on ice 🤣
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus looking at the X20PFC
What’s the cost vs carpet?
I got me a solarflex.hoodie. now I needs me a sea deck
What is going through the alleged brain of the dude who gave this a thumbs down......really?
Haters everywhere
Falcon boats also give you the option for sea dek
Do they go bow to stern? I know they offer it in the cockpit
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus bow to stern. F20 Hybrid
I'm trying to replace my carpet with that seadeck stuff. Would i get a discount if I told them you sold me on that stuff?
I mean I’m not saying it’ll work, but try it 🤣
I would love to get this for my boat but unfortunately my boat is 37 years old and the do not make this for my boat
How’s the sea deck holding up? Do you still have the boat
I don’t have that one now but have another just like it. Had that one over a year. Held up great!
What color is this seadek
Long term will be the true test of durability. All my research has led me to believe that seadek has about half the life expectancy of carpet
Have you seen what carpet looks like in a bass boat after about 6 months of use? Not good in my experience. Just from normal wear and tear.
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus yes I have as every boat I've ever owned has had carpeted decks.
Just redoing my carpet today. Carpet is 12 years old!
Watch big bass dreams you can see for yourself how it where’s. As far as I’m concerned the best is straight fiberglass. My saltwater boat doesn’t have anything and it is the best wash rinse done
NEW SUBSCRIBER
Thank you!
is this seadek hot in the summer and cold in the winter?
No hotter or colder than carpet.
Most likely the darker color that will bring heat more than the product
Cheaper and better to do fiberglass with gel coat paint. Maybe some nonskid on top of that. You know, like real fishing boats.
Real fishing boats… sound…. Expensive
I thank Lund pro v Bass does the same
Didn’t mean to hit a nerve was just sharing info from someone who has had it for 2 yrs. is good stuff but does wear out in high traffic areas.
Seadek in Florida is the only way to go.
Can anyone speak to durability. Like a dude buys a boat with sea deck, what's it looking like in 10 years. Stains, chewed up, or no??
I can’t speak to the 10 year test, but I know what carpet looks like on a 1 year old 80k bass boat and a 10 year old bass boat. Not good. Regardless of what is on the deck it all takes a beating. That’s for sure.
Wish you could get padded deck with SeaDek. Hopefully 1 day and carpet will disappear
Put hydro turf on the trolling motor pedal won't be hot
Seadeck kicking wet stinky carpet in the teeth lol
Sea deck been used in deep sea boats for ever and it does NOT CAUSE U TO FALL MY LORD OCEAN WAVES 100 TIMES WOREST THAN LAKE. NVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN CARPET IN A BOAT EVER . UNLESS U IN A YACHT
Expensive.
Great! Yeah.....so nice to have a sponsor, and act your just some normal guy!!!!what's a few grand when you don't have to pay for it!!! Yes of course carpets a terrible idea. When your sponsor gives you free stuff. Another hyped paid advertisement...
Ever read a comment and just know the person typing it is miserable? Yeah me too. It’s nice to have a job that allows you to buy a boat that has SeaDek on it. That I enjoy a lot. Have a good one.
Bad idea? Lol. Ever get a stray cat jump in your boat? Don’t!!!
Haha I don’t think I’d want them in the boat either way! I have heard tales of this happening though 😳
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus yeah. I know a guy who put sea dek in. Next day it was a freaking mess!!
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus that’s reason I won’t put it in. I’d love to try it but have stray cats all over where I live in Florida.
Call me in 2 yrs when it wears out. Have sea deck in my boat. Great at first but doesn’t hold up over time. Y’all will see.
We will all need your number so we can call….. you ever seen carpet after two MONTHS of fishing?
5 years and still like new. This guy has no idea what he is talking about or has no experience with sea deck
