Hello tony and welcome to Iboats ..

When you say "bumpy" do you mean griptex ( sand type ) finish..or a Patterned finish..

Hi YD, its a pattered finish,I have it on the swim platform and the side decks and the front deck, it is suposed to be non slip, it hasn't got grit in it, looks like tiny squares but it is a uniformed pattern lines running north to south and east to west, any help would be good, hoping to start next week with the smooth bits first, great vid on youtube but I haven't found one for patterns
Regards Tony my boat is a Fairline
