After 5 years, it was time to upgrade our cockpit flooring as our Raptor Decking was starting to come up in about 50% of the pieces.
We went with SeaDek, storm grey/black and diamond pattern. Blue Seas Fabrication is the local SeaDeck reseller/installer. They were fantastic to work with. They used Channel Surfing to template the Ranger Tug R27 and have posted the kit up on their website for purchase if anyone else is interested.
They have other designs and colors available. We opted for the fish ruler, and we wanted our boat name in the decking. They have other colors such as blue, green, and reds for the other cool hull colors.
It's so soft on the feet, we don't slip on a wet deck when fishing. It cleans up easily with just soap and water and a soft bristle brush. We have no regrets with Raptor and think it's a great product. We went with SeaDek for colors, patterns, customization, and to do something different. SeaDek expects us to get 5-7 year, maybe longer.
We've posted a bunch of photos up on our website.

We are also working on two videos for YouTube that go over decking in a lot more detail. We expect the videos to be published early next week on YouTube.
Note: I haven't stuck the fish ruler to the boat yet. The photograph was taken with it laying on transom. The adhesive won't stick to a ceramic coated surface. In another week or two I'll buff off the ceramic coating and stick it on the boat permanently.
