Need Rubber Mat for Forward Deck Area.

[luckyinkentucky]

I've decided that I need to replace my rubber mat that sits on the forward 'nose' of the boat where my trolling motor sits. It is cracked and worn out in quite a few places.

The measurements I need are 24" X 44" X 1/8" in thickness.

I have looked high and low, but to no avail. The cheapest I found it was a 75' roll for $150. I don't need that much. I've checked Lowe's, Ace Hardware, and Home Depot, but they don't carry it.

The two designs I like are the bottom left corner, and the top right corner of the picture.

Thanks for the help.

JC Whitney has a rubber truck bed mat that you could cut for half that price.

Closest thing i've seen is the 1/2" x 48" x 72" in checkerplate

The 5/16" Thickness mat has been discontinued but the checkerplate 1/2" or ribbed 1/2" should be no problem.

Let me know if you need a price.

UPDATE ..... In my sleep deprived state last night I entered the wrong thickness.

I need it 1/8" thick, and not 1/4" like I previously stated.

Anything more than that would be too thick for my bow.

I just found out the manufacturer of the mat on my boat, so I contacted them directly. They offer all kinds of rubber mat products, and are a major supplier for the boating industry.

I had to pay $70 for a 37" X 74" x 1/8" mat, but it is worth it to me to save the headache. It comes with an adhesive backer, so you can place it on fenders or anywhere you need to get a firm grip.

Here is the link.
