I just don't believe that a vinyl decking is going to cosmetically hold up
in the long term. It might last forever, but I don't think it will look
good after a dozen years or so. In fact, I don't really think it looks that
good when new.
I personally like the cork decking material as a low maintenance replacement
for teak decking. www.marinedeck.net
I saw this product at the Miami boat show, and was impressed. It is hard
and durable, but unlike the vinyl deck, it would be easy to DIY install.
After I repair some core problems in my flybridge, I will probably install
this product in lieu of regenerating the molded non-skid gelcoat.
No commercial affiliation, yada yada...
