This SeaRay owner’s boating experience will never be the same. SeaDek Transforms a SeaRay Swim Platform Jake shares highlights about his day and the installation. Jake: I woke up early and enjoyed a cup of coffe while printing out some dri-fits for another project. I took our boys to school then I journeyed over to dri-fit a small swim platform. Once I finished the dry fit I stopped by my boy Shawn O’ Brien’s house to say hello to him, Ash, and G-dawg before headingf to Pleasant Harbor Marina, Arizona to install Mr. Johnson’s project. This morning carried a somewhat anxious vibe due to the fact that my partner/lover Beth was out of town. Her absence was felt. She helps so much on every project, but until this day I just didn’t realize how much. Mocha Over Beach Sand SeaDek Color Combo Upon my arrival, I notice a beautiful vintage yellow Ferrari parked nearby. The Ferrari was just as shiny as could be and added to the reassurance that today was going to be an absolutely gorgeous day! Ferrari Brightens The Day! I started by getting the SeaDek package, as well as all of the things needed, down to the dock where the customer’s boat was located. What a job this was without my Beth. I started the install by […]

Jake and Beth received interesting visitors during one of their SeaDek Installations recently. Installing SeaDek for this Team SC Wake couple has definitely become an adventure. Rumor Has It … SeaDek Installation Jake Miller: It was a beautiful sunny morning in Az with the highs expected to break record temps. We knew that if we got out of the house early we could beat the heat by getting in the shade and enjoying a small breeze. Blue Camo and Storm Gray Brushed Faux Teak Once we sent our 3 kids out the door to school, we made a couple of stops on our way to the site for the SeaDek installation. The boat we were about to do the install on is located at Scorpion Bay Lake Pleasant. The boat belongs to a SC Wake customer by the name of Jimmy Byrd. Jimmy had SC Wake install SeaDek on his swim platform a few years prior and wanted to match the rest of the boat to the swim platform. Rumor Has It SeaDek Makes a Difference Before heading out the door we get a call from the customer. He lets us know that he is in Mexico with terrible service. He asks if I could take a card number down for him. His timing could not have been any better. Paid in full! With a few quick slides of my small ceramic blade, I swiftly cut all the backing on the pieces. Beth preps the surface on the inside by giving the boat a wipe down with Acetone. We both lay all the pieces out across the boat like a really big puzzle.Now it was time to get to work on the install. We started applying the really big foam stickers. Down goes the first one, then the second and […]

SeaDek Installers Jake and Beth install new SeaDek on ‘Extra Dirty.’ Jake Miller: Started off one really hot and humid morning. It had monsoon-ed the night before creating high levels of moisture in the air. Beth and I started the day by tying up some loose ends and planning our trip north to Scorpion Bay Marina to install SeaDek on a boat called Extra Dirty. Extra Dirty SeaDek Upgrade We ran into another customer in the restaurant who coincidentally has the exact same boat. He was looking to have a custom SeaDek runner made for his craft. We talked a bit with our new friend before we made our way to Ashley’s boat where the installation work was waiting on us. The rain and humidity from the night before made everything feel soggy and damp. Not the kind of old carpet a person would ever want to work with. SeaDek Adds Traction To Steps The shade from the covered slip offered a little bit of comfort and relief, but not much.Beth started the project by giving the boat a thorough wipe down with Acetone. I started scoring 3mm backing in preparation for the install. Our starting point was the bridge of the boat, carefully and methodically working our way downwards. Then we started to work outwards to ensure the least amount of traffic on the brand new SeaDek. The last pieces to be installed were the swim platform pads. SeaDek Installation Storm Grey over Bimini Blue As we got closer to being finished people started to snap photos as they walked by. So much Ooooooing and ahhhhhing, while they snapped pictures of the completed SeaDek installation project. The exposure on this dock offered a couple more leads to future installation jobs. Customers who saw our work were excited about SeaDek and […]

Our Jake Miller is quite the story teller! Combined with a talent for SeaDek installation and exceptional customer service skills, Jake also gives us a visual idea of what the day had to offer during one of his recent projects. Thanks Jake and Beth for all that you do! 233 Chaparral Sunesta 1999 SeaDek Installation Jake Miller: The day started off with a bit of an overcast, but that didn’t stop the heat any. We were scheduled to meet this customer at a neutral location in Peoria, Arizona. The location was in my buddy’s shop. I’d love to say this one went as smoothly as they all do, but that was not the case in this situation. The customer dropped off his boat with the existing foam non-skid still on the swim platform. SeaDek Boat Flooring Transformation After talking surface prep pricing with the customer, we swiftly went to work saturating and scraping. With some real effort, we got the old boat flooring removed. The interior floor was prepped, shiny and clean thanks to the Acetone. Next step, installing the beautiful new SeaDek boat flooring kit. SeaDek Adds Traction Where You Need It Most We finished the project just in time for lunch. We had another installation scheduled to do as soon as FedEx showed up with the package. Later on that day we meet up with Randy, (the boat owner) to present his boat to him. His response, “I knew it would make a difference, BUT THIS, this is incredible”! With the look of happiness on his face, we connected his trailer and he slowly drove away. SeaDek Installation Project Completion SC Wake takes the worry out of maintaining your new installation.
