Getting the old "sticky off was a pain" -

Laying it down.

Done - I would have made the pad an inch wider if starting from scratch, used someone else's pattern.

Looks great, the fit looks a lot like how the one on ours is. I can agree the glue residue is a pain. I replaced our pad as the original one started peeling off. I got a new one under warranty.
Looks great... Seadek feels good to the feet and Knees...
Very nice. Very nice indeed.
Did you lose a grab-rail?
The grab rail is removed on purpose. My wife gets on her hydrofoil ON the platform, and the t-bar ($$$) would hit the grab rail and ding the t-bar. Note the butt-trax pad on the side of the platform to cushion it a bit. It's in the garage.
When you placed your order, what was the turn-around time to have it shipped?

I ordered it on the 17 of October last fall, had it on 07 November. I have heard that during spring and summer it takes longer as it is the peak season for them.
Good job.... you will like it... I love mine!
What did you use to get the glue off?
how do you like the color? is that the cool grey? Does it get dirty easy? IS that the factory logo or Custom text?
Thanks....Dale
Hi Dale,
The color is great - and just getting back from HOT/SUNNY lake powell (95+ every day), I can tell you, this is SOOOO much more
comfortable, and cool than the factory black one.
The logo is just the "Supra" that they have on file - personally, I don't know whether you need that or not.
Most of the glue came off after letting the platform sit in the sun for a while before pulling the old pad. I tried to do it when it was cooler, and a lot of the sticky stayed in the area I was pulling. For that, I used Acetone.
Well worth the money - now I gotta shoot me a cat that used it as a "claw sharpener" the day after I installed it ....

How was powell? We are going there on friday for a week. If you put in at bullfrog, where did you find the best camping with the water levels?
Powell was great, even with the water so far down, it's still amazing. I do go into BullFrog - but we just stayed in the slip this year, not enough
adults with me to safely take the houseboat out.
We saw some great beaches in Iceberg (back), Cedar, I heard that FiftyMile (up Escalante) was fantastic - saw beaches in Knowles, 1 good place in Seven Mile - and as always, good places in Good Hope - if you want to go that far.
Thanks for the info! We are heading south towards iceberg and escalante. I don't think we will go all the way to the san juan arm this time, but maybe later in the year.
Have a great trip! My next one is in less than 3 weeks -- I just wish it wasn't nearly 600 miles each way - 3 weeks apart is a bit tough doing that drive over I-70, and the week of the 4th of July is ALWAYS nutso there at Powell, but it's what I own, so I go - then we go again in September, 3rd week - that week we're tentatively planning San Juan, if the right number of people are coming with.
we hope to get back down in september but haven't picked weeks yet. The boats name is the krystal mist and is on buoy 417. Maybe we'll see ya down there.
accetone or 3m decal adhesive remover. works wonders but is really messy.Quote:
