Nothing adds the look and feel of class to a power cruiser, ocean liner, ship, motor yacht, or sailboat than a rich, faux wood floor.

There are a number of materials that make up the best that are suitable for any type of passenger boat from a pontoon to cabin cruiser to a luxury ocean liner or cruise ship, but vinyl is among the best.

Vinyl is very forgiving. It is perfect for boats, as it is durable, weatherproof, waterproof, and a breeze to clean and maintain. Most marine vinyl products are also designed to offer traction and wear resistance.

  • Greatmats - For The Best Faux Wood Boat Flooring

    Greatmats has so many boat flooring products from which you can choose, with many options that go far beyond the vinyl options listed. If you have a smaller marine space to cover, or, if you have a tighter budget, Greatmats does feature other flooring solutions that may be more appropriate for your project.

    For example, foam flooring is a great boat flooring solution, as it provides a non-slip surface that will not absorb water. Greatmats has some excellent faux wood foam flooring solutions from which to choose, all of which are cushy, soft, attractive, and slip resistant. Foam boat flooring is often antibacterial, anti-fungal, non-toxic, and mold resistant, and it can be more affordable than other flooring options, also.

    Greatmats also has other flooring options like rubber tiles, PVC tiles, and carpet squares that have been used successfully for boat flooring, as well - if you’re open to options other than faux wood ones. Again, regardless of your preferences and budget, Greatmats has a product that will work for you!
