Custom SeaDek with Castaway Customs

“What is the difference between SeaDek and other EVA/PE brands?”
The question tends to arise from time to time and understandably so. For starters, SeaDek is a brand name that has also become the generic name for all marine foam decking. Similar to Velcro, Kleenex, and Coca-Cola, these products have become common names that get misused to describe other similar products.

SeaDek, the brand, has been creating non-skid marine decking since 2004 and Castaway Customs has been creating custom SeaDek applications since 2007.

There are many reasons to choose SeaDek over other brands but the top five reasons SeaDek is best for your boat include:

  • Improved traction for your safety
  • Maximum comfort during long days
  • It is customizable, setting your boat apart from the rest
  • Easy to clean as the closed cell EVA/PE resists stains
  • Durable, high-quality, and long-lasting product


Castaway Customs is the original company that began providing custom foam flooring options for boats. We developed the tools, processes, and procedures that have now become standard for imitators. By choosing SeaDek for your boat, it means more than simply selecting an exceptional product; it means providing yourself the peace of mind that comes from working with an industry leader. Castaway Customs was born on the water, and with more than 12 years of specialization in SeaDek fabrication, you can trust us to exceed your expectations every time you leave the dock.

With SeaDek the possibilities are endless. It comes in 27 individual colors allowing you to mix and match, there are thickness and texture options allowing customization of your comfort and style, and there are tons of patterns. If you can dream it, we can do it.

Ready to get SeaDek? Here’s what to expect.

First, we need to digitally capture your boat and we come to you for this. We’re 100% mobile and work around your busy schedule. Our state of the art equipment allows us to capture every detail and our clear communication ensures you get exactly what you want.

Next, we design your custom SeaDek. This is where your vision begins to take shape. With the most experience in the industry, our CAD team has the ability to make your project come to life.

After you approve the design, we move on to fabrication. Every morning begins with cleaning and recalibrating our CNC tools, allowing us to make the cleanest cuts on the market. Once your material has been machined, it passes through multiple quality control checkpoints.

The last step is installation. A Castaway Customs technician begins by cleaning your boat to make sure it is free from any oils and debris. Once the surface is ready, we meticulously check fitment and accuracy before the final application of the pad.

If you’re looking to kick off your custom SeaDek project, give Bret a call at (517) 712-9567 or email us at [email protected] today.
