[@James_Hande]

Just recently stumbled across your channel, AWESOME info and videos!!! I used to fish from a canoe for most of my life. Now that I'm 63 with a blown out back I finally upgraded a bit. I don't own a Jon boat but picked up a 1978 Glastron Skiflite 16' Tri-Hull with trailer and 50hp Mercury really cheap. I'm rebuilding it, separated the 2 hull half's (top & bottom). When I get done replacing the transom, stringers and floor deck I was wondering what to use for the flooring cover. Thanks for saving my arse from buying the cheap crap. Oh yeah... I'm converting the boat from a bow rider to a fishing boat.

[@SendItJonBoats]

I made that huge mistake and bought the cheap turf... I regret it and will never do it again.

[@bob2161]

Was wonderin y ur boat was wet when trimmin outside...thought u cleaned her off for the cam...till i watched the end😂😂😂😂....RAIN!!!NICE VID...

[@skidmarkzuckerberg]

I actually have the Amazon stuff on my jon boat deck and it has held up pretty well given the quality. I painted the deck and lightly scuffed it before sticking it down and that seemed to help with adhesion. Surprisingly, the foam itself cleans off pretty well with dish liquid and a bristle brush. I will say though that it could be thicker stuff and have a bit better adhesive(clearly from your video) . My feet after standing barefoot for a couple hours need a break. With shoes or sandals no problem standing for however long. If I come to redoing the deck in the future, I would definitely splurge this time around on better quality foam but I think the Amazon stuff is a good option for those on a budget.

[@SendItJonBoats]

First I have heard with good luck on that Amazon foam. The stuff I got would not stay stuck at all. It sucked. Glad your experience was better than mine.

[@robertfoote3255]

Nice Shirt....Bacon Helps. If I had not already applied color matched bed liner to my top deck....that Hydro deck looks sweet! 🤔. The only thing I see is those cold days of spring Steelhead fishing...freezing water in and on it. 🤔 In the Sunbelt it's.... perfect! -17°F with 25mph breeze up here, every thing is froze solid.....we are playing go fish with cards.... inside! 😂😂😂 Even pointing out your mistakes.....I think it still looks great. SEND IT!

whoooooooo yeah keep that -17 temp stuff up there! We don't want it.

I use the Amazon turf on the back of my speed boat and it’s held up really well although it isn’t very squishy but if you sand the area and prep it then it’ll last

It is really easy to clean. I use a long handled truck washing brush and Dawn soap to scrub it down then just spray it off with a water hose. They don't recommend a pressure washer, but maybe one of those low pressure electric ones would be okay like the Harbor Freight ones I wash my truck with.

Good to know thanks

[@shender944]

I’m not sure the price difference but if you have an area that will require multiple cuts around hatches ect you might be better off doing a template and letting the manufacturer cut it. When I did my boat with sea deck the process was to make templates then the vendor printed them in cad and sent it back on clear plastic sheets so I could verify and or mark up with a sharpie for any final changes before they cut them out.

[@terryj257]

@@SendItJonBoats oh, I didn't see the blind. I just figured, you liked the camo pattern. Not exactly a camo pattern most duck hunters would pick. Maybe Wood Duck hunters. But what do I know. I see pink camo, blaze orange camo, even something called urban camo. If you want some camo that no one has seen before, get some of that vinyl wrap that looks like chrome and the anodized aluminum wrap, brushed stainless wrap, maybe some gun metal black. Well, pick some flashy, polished metal looking, vinyl wrap. And cut out the camo shapes you want. You could call it "Chromouflage". Oh, I got another one for you, glow in the dark camouflage, do I need to say more? Or how's about a camo pattern that's made out of the naked lady shapes, The kind that all the truckers, have on their mud flaps, and random pairs of boobies, of all different shapes and sizes. Ducks seem to stay away from the guys, if they don't have a blind on their boat, here in Minnesota. Dux must git stupidr, duh ferther thems go sowth. Thanks, Scooter.

Good job. Do you use a flat iron on your beard? LOL....

[@SendItJonBoats]

I actually use a straightener not a flat iron.

Didn’t Nate give you all of his “turf secrets” in Tennessee? 🤷‍♂️

[@SendItJonBoats]

I missed turf day... I was on a boat. I would say I was fishing but I never saw any fish... so I was just riding around on a boat playing with my pole lol.

[@chrisroberts3963]

@@SendItJonBoats there is nothing wrong with playing with your pole 🤷‍♂️😂😜

Hydrodeck, according to their website does not sell this stuff in sheets. It's all deck kits for specific boats. I'd like to buy it but they aren't making it very easy.

[@SendItJonBoats]

Call them and they can help you out. Or you can order sheets from tbnation.net

[@akbuilder7626]

[@thaddeusstruckman9974]

Wouldn't the foam act as floatation. If I sticks that good might keep er floating on a ruff day

[@SendItJonBoats]

Maybe, I dunno.

[@georgebauman8159]

[@SendItJonBoats]

I'll have you know I'm a master chiropractor who went to Harvard and you built this boat completely wrong. Love your videos man I hope one day I can build my jon boat this way. I like how it's simple and not too over the top.

[@SendItJonBoats]

LMAO I spit my coffee reading that mr master chiropractor! Thanks for watching.

No such thing as right around the corner from your location to Acworth with our traffic. :-) It's more like .......... on the other side of the state! as far as I'm concerned. (not sure if you can tell but I'm over the traffic)

[@SendItJonBoats]

The traffic in this whole state sucks balls. Everywhere I go it is freakin traffic.
