That’s the plan— to use Plasteak. I invested in the roller and am about to order the vinyl. Originally thought I’d do it in place using their clear plastic sheet and cut the vinyl to fit, then glue it down in the boat. However I only have 4 big pieces and removing them is no big deal. Thus my latest plan is to do it off the boat which would be much easier on my back and my knees! I can also (I think) avoid the cost/shipping of the clear plastic sheet this way. My thought is to place pieces together as on the boat and then cover with the Plasteak and cut and glue it. Not quite sure if this will work since I won’t be able to see ‘through’ the vinyl for matching purposes as I might with the clear plastic. If I can get both vinyl and plastic shipped with only 1 $50 Fedex large piece shipping charge, I may get the plastic anyway @ $75. Charlie NelsonWater Phantom36 XL/kcb #077

Will look great when you finish. https://www.plasteak.com/plasteak-recycled-plastic-products/marine-grade-flooring I did a hatch cover on a trawler with PlasDek, the exterior version. The job was straightforward. Get a laminate roller from a big box store. I used one of these: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-Extension-Handle-Roller/3030693 PlasTeak folks were easy to work with. I had the piece custom made by them with borders.

Only the thin teak and holly veneer of the sole is bad--otherwise the screwed-in boards (4) that make up the sole are fine. After about 10+ years of racing crew activity (mostly throwing cans, bottles down below plus occasionally dropping of other gear on the sole (winch handles, etc. ) along with a previous short-lived attempt of mine to sand the current veneer, it's time to do this job right and for less than the 2 boat bucks it cost when I had the yard do it previously (they replaced entire sole). I will remove the pieces and glue the vinyl to the old veneer, which can be trimmed with a knife, to get reasonable matches to the teak and holly pattern. Have any listers gone this route with sprucing up their cabin sole? If so, are there any pitfalls to avoid before I begin this latest DIY project?
