My old 70's sailboat had a rotten cockpit sole which required recoring. Access the bottom was difficult, so I did a top-down repair. The top skin with the molded-in anti-skid texture was in pretty poor condition to start with, too, so I just laid a new skin and used this EVA foam on top.After the paint on the new fiberglass had a week to cure fully, I cleaned it thoroughly with soap and water and a wipe of acetone, then carefully laid down the foam - you want to be accurate with this, the adhesive is very strong and you won't really have the chance to reposition.It's much more comfortable to stand on than the old anti-skid, and still provides good grip like you need on a boat. I'm more than satisfied with the functionality of this decking and plan to apply it on the rest of the cockpit next season. It's held up well through one season with no signs of wear or damage. Hoping to get several more years out of it.

Exactly what I needed. I bought this for my boat trailer to replace the harsh sand paper they put normally on it as "grip". This stuff is super cheap but pretty solid actually. It makes my trailer look a lot newer and it was super easy to install. I probably wouldn't put it in my boat but it works for what I needed. The color is nice as well. If your gonna install this anywhere, use 3m tape primer to ensure that this stuff wont come up. (That's what I used when I installed seadek on my boat). It definitely aint sea dek but I wouldn't waste another penny to put sea dek on my trailer, this stuff works great.

I bought this product based on prior reviews and 3M adhesive factor. I used rosin paper to make the templates which was great because it was sturdy and easy to work with. Ilas far as cutting the flooring, be sure to have multiple utility knives and lots and lots of blades. I have no idea how many I went through however it was a lot. You can tell real quick when your blade needs replaced because it starts to snag and becomes difficult to cut. When cutting I had layers of cardboard underneath it and used a metal “L” to run the blade along. When installing, I pulled part of the backing off and got into place little by little before removing more of the backing. I did purchase a small roller to help apply pressure when installing, I would definitely recommend the roller. The end result is great, there are some imperfections in the installation however that is on me not the product. Looking forward to boating season starting to get enjoy the flowing instead of scrubbing the fiberglass floor nonstop. We have a 23’ Monterey Explorer and was able to do the inside of the boat and the back platform off of three full size sheets.

Great packaging and adhesive! The only thing I was not sure about was the color. It looked darker in the picture but it still looks good. Just make sure you prep all the areas really good.

Used the OCEANBROAD EVA Foam Boat Flooring as the base layer in my sleep system for overlanding and camping—and let me tell you, my knees thank me every single time I crawl into bed. 🙌 It’s cushy, easy to cut to fit, and adds that perfect bit of insulation and softness over hard camper truck bed with a plywood floor.Super lightweight, water-resistant, and durable enough to handle muddy boots or the occasional spilled coffee. This stuff wasn’t just made for boats—it’s perfect for anyone building out a rig or camping setup. Total game-changer. 🛻⛺

I'll leave my original review at the bottom. Here are my reasons for updating it and my conclusions.I contacted the Oceanbroad people and they were polite and understanding. They set up a ZOOM call to hear my opinions, and offered to replace the material. They genuinely want to take care of customers and launch a quality product. I give them points for that.I have a 30-foot sailboat that sits on a mooring in Miami where it gets full sun exposure. If you keep your boat in a garage or under a cover, or use this for interior floors, I imagine you'll get plenty of use from vinyl teak. And this will be the case for many boaters. The material is attractive, sticks well, and it's easy to work with. It's comfortable to walk on barefoot and makes excellent non-skid.If you have a cruising vessel exposed to full-time tropical sun, thermoplastic material will probably serve you better—or if you have the funds, real wood can last 50 years.• Vinyl is affordable and easy to work with for low-sun applications. In high sun, it shrinks and deteriorates.• Thermoplastic is slightly harder to work with and costs more but has a five-year guarantee. I haven't tried it to verify the results, and guarantees usually cover material costs only. Measuring and cutting panels and borders is time-consuming. You want to do the job once whether you hire someone to do it or DIY.• Wood is hardest to work with and costs the most, but any problems with it will almost certainly be the next owner's expense. In the long run, it's the best bargain despite the up-front costs.If you're considering vinyl decking, understand that it has its limitations. Vinyl that's UV-rated for 1000 hours will give you 125 eight-hour days of sun. If your boat is only exposed to sun when you use it, that can mean 125 days on the water—which is almost 3 years worth of Saturdays. But if your boat sits uncovered on a mooring, the material can shrink and deteriorate quickly.As long as you understand the pros and cons and choose the right material for your application, you'll be happy with Oceanbroad and their EVA foam boat flooring.Here's my original review.--------------------------I used this EVA teak to create non-skid surfaces in my sailboat cockpit. I bought it because the 3M adhesive sounded like it would last—and so far, it has. But the vinyl has problems:1. Whether this deteriorates because of UV exposure or on its own, it leaves orange "mud" everywhere. Sit on it with a wet swimsuit and you'll have an orange butt. A good scrub will temporarily help but then the problem returns. I can see the molded-in faux wood grain is wearing away.2. After taking time and care to lay out borders and strips, I was disappointed to discover that many of my tight, invisible joints had opened up. If the material was worthwhile, I'd fill the voids with caulk—another project—but that would just make its inevitable removal more of a nightmare. How much re-painting will be needed when I redo this is yet to be seen.3. The orange color is just a bit too bright to be natural (though I let that go at first thinking the material would work out).I did everything right and ended up with what will turn to to be an expensive time suck.

Would not stick to any surface for more than a day, even metal surfaces that have been prepared correctly.This is not my first experience with EVA foam but it is the first time it wouldn't adhere.*UPDATE*The company reached out to me and we troubleshooted and found it was either a defective batch or got damaged in shipping by heavy (hurricane) rains. They made it right.
