I am thinking of buying a Seadek kit for the 2015 PA 14. I spoke to someone at Seakdek and they told me that they don't have a kit in stock for the 2015 yet. She said that someone submitted measurements of their 2015 and were sent a kit but that person has not responded as to how it fit, so Seadek has not made the kit. My question is for anyone who has ordered a kit for the 2015. Did you use the drawing they send you in an email that has not been rated by the submitter? Also thinking of going with Marine Mat because of the extra coverage of front hatch and rear deck. Anyone have the Marine Mat version? How do you like it?

I had my 2015 pa14 done back in March. We have a Seadek distributor here in NC that came and took the measurements, ordered the template from Seadek. They shipped me the final template to check and it fit perfectly. According to the distributor, Seadek should have the kit I ordered and I have several others that have ordered that kit. I would send pics of my design on the PA but for some reason, I can't post them here. I will post on Hobie owners Facebook or text them to you. Please PM me with your number and I can text them to you!

urbansavage,

Call and talk to Kira below. Tell her I gave you her info. I templated every PA14 for SeaDek from a 2009 to a 2015. Yes, they don't have a 2015 PA14 listed on their website. They are coming. They can make you a custom kit. They can make you a copy of mine (minus the custom logos). If you like mine, they can add the custom logos without the Hobie "H", but with the rod/reel and text. The custom kit would not be much more than the chopped up kits online. It costs more to make the larger pieces as you don't get as many pieces on a 77X44 inch sheet of material. You can get a custom kit in any color they have versus the online kits which are limited in the padding color choices.

Technically you could have Kira get you the online kit for a 2013 PA14 and substitute the rear cargo section off my custom kit. She should be able to do that and you would be all set. It's not that hard. Kira's last e-mail to me contained - "Thanks for clarifying the fit of the Hobie kit on the 2014. I have drawings in the works for both the 2014 and 2015 with your rear storage piece." :mrgreen:

Nathan,

I'd be happy to post your pictures and/or help you learn to post the pictures. Easy to do. Just let me know.

Steve
