King starboard anti skid

Post by MakinTime »

Hey guys, anyone have any experience with King starboard anti skid for steps? I’m replacing my aft teak steps with king starboard anti skid. Wondering on thickness, thinking 1/2” or 3/4” ... is this stuff pretty stiff? I’m thinking on going 5” wide as opposed to the 2.5” wide that the current ones are. The step width is 22”. At boat outfitters you can buy the stuff pre cut and have a routed edge put on, kinda cool. Thanks.

I would try to get some info from the manufacturer. I believe with a 22" wide step, even if you use 3/4" you will need support underneath or it will sag rather quickly. The stuff is stiff, but has little structural integrity.
