I know Gator Trax sells it in some custom colors too, check this link:

I had it on a previous boat and loved it. You can order it from https://www.hydroturf.com and Gator Trax Boats has some custom colors https://www.gatortraxboats.com/boat-accessories/floor-covering-hydroturf.html.
 
Ordered mine at hydroturf.com. Expensive but love it. Mine is the link in my signature towards the back of the build. Got mine with the 3m backing.
 
SBT=short block technologies out of Clearwater?

Don't know if that's the same SBT, but we used to sell a lot of their jet ski reman engines.

We have two very popular styles: swamp camo sheets in 47"x86" and green camo in 40"x62".

Here are color samples.

Did my Weld Craft 1656 in Swamp Cammo. Love the stuff (so does the wife). Ordered mine directly from Hydro Turf with PSA adhesive.
 
I ordered a few samples to check the material out in person. I am interested to how it will hold up to dragging crab pots and coolers across it through the fishing and crabbing season.

I think I'm going to try it as well because the PWC website also shows a padding you can put under it. Nice of them to offer a discount to us!
 
I am interested in what tools are used to cut this material and how easy it cuts.

Also...in the photo in the first post you can see the corner of the material lifted up. Not sure if this is delamination or was done by a passer by. Anyone having problems with the 3M not sticking long term?


Thank you,
Rob

It cuts easy. I've read where guys have even used a router table to finish the edges. No issues with the 3M adhesive. It holds for good on a clean surface.
 
The poster above is absolutely correct. It cuts rather easily given how strong of a material it is. The 3m will stick for good if the surface is properly prepped.
