Happy Labor Day weekend! Hope everyone had a fun and safe summer. On our 1998 445 the admiral wants to take up the carpeting in the salon and hallway in the galley. Two questions. First, we are considering replacing the salon carpet with Marine Mat, any thoughts on that or other recommendations? Secondly we are considering installing hatches in the salon floor to better access the motors. Currently our access is the lift upstairs. We would put them on gas struts to make it a little easier. Has anyone done this? Any thoughts or comments would be welcomed. Thanks in advance!

Re: Flooring
Regarding your flooring, not sure what marine mat is. I used Infinity Luxury Woven Vinyl. Very easy to work with, and super easy to clean. I have the teak style, but there are many styles. I have it laying in the salon, cockpit, bridge, and swim platform. I also put a piece on the front porch at home. Holds up great in our wild weather. Here is a link:
