ebbtide dynatrak carpet conversion

[jeffwpayne]

i bought a 1991 ebbtide dynatrak 200ss with a 92 or 93 mercury 200xri fuel/oil injected

i removed all the carpet and want to do a non skid but not sure how to go about it.

1. gel coat with pattern like flats boats
2. spackle like carolina skiff

also i cant find any parts or info on these boats. i need a walk-thru winshield, bucket seats and 1 aluminum storage lid. if anyone has info where to get these things. im thinking either custom made or boat yard???

thanks

thanks for the info. not sure if im gonna use the durabak or something else. right now my options are awlgrip,kiwigrip,ultratuff, gel coat, or get it done by line-x in sarasota. iv seen some of there work on the forum and its awesome.

also i took the boat out for its first run and it runs 55mph not gps (dont remember what the rpm was) that was with a 21 pitch quicksilver mirage ss prop and a total of 4 people on board. not too bad i guess but id like to get it up to mid 60's. it ran good but porpised a few times and i lost 1 aluminum hatch lid and dont know what to do as for a replacement??? i cant find one like it. made by alumalid

Welcome to iboats.

Get your hatch made locally by a metal shop. Chances are you will never find a replacement one.

Why are you looking for a windshield? Good luck. Try ebay. The windshield is one of the MOST costly replacement items. Prices similar to $1000 + would nor surprise me.

If you want to go with a non-slip surface the key is going to be the prep. Complete removal of ALL of the old carpet glue and prepare the surface.

Good luck.

Re: ebbtide dynatrak carpet conversion

yea il probably have a custom hatch made or make one myself, and as for the windshield im not too worried about it but would be nice to have.. just for resale value and rainy days

I used KiwiGrip on my deck and I am very happy with it!! Goes on easy, great grip when wet, cleans up nice and easy!!! You can also have it tinted to any color you like.
