The 22 Pathfinder bay boat has been a staple for a long time in the bay boat market. Looking at the older model boats, you can see they have made some nice upgrades to the deck areas on the newer boats. This customer wanted to dress up his older boat by decking it out in SeaDek. He decided to add a few logos on the front deck as well as on the back bulkhead to give it that custom touch. Most of the boats produced by Maverick Boat Company all have an “oyster white” gel coat so our mica colored SeaDek is a nice color to match. A popular option of many customers is a pad under the leaning post to help prevent the cooler from moving around. If you are interested in having some custom SeaDek made for your bay boat or skiff feel free to contact me at tyler@castawaycustom.com.

I had the pleasure meeting the guys from Boatmaster Trailers through a mutual friend Capt. Chris Wittman down in Fort Myers. Chris runs the Team Hooters Lake and Bay boat which he guides out of and fishes in numerous tournament series. I was very impressed with the double rig trailer built by Boatmaster to pull around not only the Boca Grande, but also the 17′ Predator at the same time. It is like the circus coming to town when these guys pull up towing two boats behind one truck. Boatmaster also builds many of the trailers for military so they know how to build a trailer that will take some abuse. The owner of Boatmaster fished with Chris one day and was impressed with the custom SeaDek on his Lake and Bay and happened to own a Lake and Bay himself so he gave me a call. His boat is older and had seen better days so he figured a full SeaDek kit would not only provide the comfort and traction he was looking for, but also give his boat a nice face lift. As you can see the beach sand over black color is a very nice color combination and contrasts nicely with the bright yellow hull. Those Fort Myers boys know how to catch some big snook so we threw in a snook logo as well as a large measuring stick so they can have proof of their fish tales. Castaway Customs is working on a few project boats that will soon be sitting on Boatmaster Trailers and following me around the state. Keep checking back for updates on the project boats and in the meantime if you would like some custom SeaDek you can contact me by email at tyler@castawaycustoms.com and if you are need for a new trailer make sure to contact Boatmaster for some of the baddest trailers made.

Growing up fishing and living in East Central Florida you don’t see to many Silver King boats running around. If you head over to the Florida’s Nature Coast you see them everywhere. The boat was designed and made to fish for none other than the tarpon. Many of the tarpon line class world records come out the Homosassa area and that’s where this boat spends a lot of it’s time fishing. The owner of the boat previously had a Lake and Bay Boca Grande which he fully decked out and wanted to do the same with this skiff. He said once you fish with SeaDek you never go back, the comfort and traction provided makes fishing a much more enjoyable on those long days on the water. We decided to go with cool gray over storm gray for the colors in a 6mm thickness. The color combination provides a nice subtle look. The before and after pictures really show the difference. If you are interested in decking out your boat or skiff you can contact Castaway Customs at tyler@castawaycustoms.com.

Got a call from a customer who wanted to deck out pretty much his entire 31 Fountain. The offshore center console was pretty much gutted when he purchased it so he was rebuilding the way he wanted to adding some nice custom touches. The boat was recently wrapped so the customer wanted something darker and brighter than our stock caribbean blue color to help accent his boat wrap. Fortunately we had enough of a custom color laying around to make what he wanted. A few nice features on this boat are the thicker helm pad with the Fountain logo to offer more cushioning and comfort while driving. We also decided to cover the floor, steps, and cuddy area with 8mm foam which was a combination of the 3mm brighter blue over our 5mm stock caribbean blue. This not only helps reduce fatigue, but also works excellent as a traction. Another very popular option I have done on several boats lately is a pad for the top of the console. This helps to keep things like your iPhone from sliding around when underway. If you are interested in having custom SeaDek designed and installed you can contact me at tyler@castawaycustoms.com.

I was recently up in New England area for about a week or so working on some projects. This 32′ Intrepid was one of the boats that I installed SeaDek on. The faux teak has become pretty popular lately so we ordered a few different versions of faux teak. This particular version had the holly as the planking with the teak grooves. To be honest, I wasn’t really sure how the holly over teak was going to look in the boat, but after the install it was clear that the customer had made the right color choice. With the engines painted white and tan accents in the coaming bolsters and cushions, the flooring looked great and really tied into the look of the boat. The customer decided to add the Intrepid logo on the pad going to into the cabin and also on a hatch behind the helm of the boat. We even did the interior floor of the cabin. This boat is used primarily as a family cruising boat and the non skid had become very slippery over the years so the customer was concerned about his kids slipping and getting hurt. Like all SeaDek products, the faux teak also provides excellent traction and makes for a more safe and enjoyable boating experience. If you are interest in getting some faux teak SeaDek in your boat feel free to call me at 321-537-2039 or email me at tyler@castawaycustoms.com.

I met Capt. Steven Tejera of Knot Tight Charters a while ago while traveling throughout South Florida working. Steven is a young captain who is passionate about fishing and knows the waters of South Florida and the Keys offshore and inshore. This is the offshore boat he runs and wanted to make the boat a little more comfortable for those long days on the water. He primarily uses the boat for sailfishing so we had Boldwater create us a custom sailfish logo for the boat. The custom logos are a nice way to make your boat a little different from the next. Castaway Customs can add boat names, fish designs, or almost any logos to your pads. Capt. Steven was extremely happy with the job and will be doing the upper station on the boat soon so stay tuned for updates. If you would like to add custom SeaDek to your boat contact Castaway Customs at 321-537-2039 or send me an email at tyler@castawaycustoms.com.
