Marine carpeting in the boat cockpit or outside deck is more than just a treat for the feet. It can provide a safer surface, reducing slippage on wet decks as well as absorbing shock to the body. But keeping the marine carpeting secure to the decks requires a choice between two necessary evils: gluing the carpeting down, which makes removal and cleaning a hassle, or installing carpet snaps into the deck – a task requiring two cringe-worthy words to a boat owner: drill holes.
If you’re just not ready for that level of commitment, there is an alternative: DECKadence Marine Flooring.
DECKadence Marine Flooring is an innovative solution to traditional boat carpeting, offering an adhesive-free installation, at the same time addressing most other concerns of standard marine carpeting.
Made of resign, PVC, and aerated rubber, DECKadence Marine Flooring (DMF) is specifically designed to withstand the demands of boating:
- It is water resistant. Though mildew can grow in DECKadence flooring, it is much less likely than in carpet.
- DECKadence flooring is durable. It is weather resistant and can easily withstand regular wear and tear.
- DMF can be used on any boat, whether it be steel, fiberglass, aluminum, or wood.
- DMF is easy to install and remove. It is adhesive free, and simply has to be laid in place. It can be lifted for cleaning or replacement, if necessary, so it is also easy to maintain. Simply hose it off to keep it clean.
- It increases safety with a non-skid, non-slip surface. It is also non-flammable.
- DMF insulates sound. It dampens noise from engines or above deck. It can also insulate decks from the sun.
- DECKadence Marine Flooring is easy to install on your own, or you can choose to have it professionally installed.
- DMF is offered in a variety of colors, so it will look great on any boat.
- DMF absorbs shock, reduces fatigue, and is more comfortable to walk on than vinyl or rubber flooring.
- DMF is ideal for fishing – according to the manufacturer, fish hooks fail to get stuck in the pile, as with traditional boat carpeting.
- You can even have your DECKadence personalized with your boat name, monogram, logo or graphic of choice.
DECKadence can also be installed on docks, patios, pool decks, commercial kitchen floors – any place where slippage or fatigue is an issue!

I’m looking for material to make a 14′ aluminum fishing boat deep V into a flat floor. I want the floor to still be towards the bottom of the boat, but I do want a flat surface.
