Hi...has anyone had any issues installing SeaDek on the textured swim platform of 2017 AR190? I am wondering if I will have any issues with ot getting a good grip.
 
I believe all swim decks have the textured swim platform. Just prep the surface correctly, peel & stick.
 
Different model boat, but I put SeaDek on the textured platform last summer, haven't had any issues. As noted, prep it well, and make sure you press down on as much of the SeaDek surface as you can to make sure it adheres well.
 
Mine lost some traction on year 3. I'm not the best prepper...Cleaned as best I could and used contact cement to re-attach. No issues so far. I'm the outlier, most people report no issues, but even if you have them you can just re-glue.
