Have any of you installed SeaDek on your TIs? Pros/cons?
Any advice and/or pictures would be appreciated.

I installed HydroTurf on the deck of my TI. It was an excellent improvement.

Looks like a neat job! How did you do the template? Masking tape trick?

For a template, I simply used clear plastic sheeting, the kind used as a vapor barrier for insulation. I carefully laid it out over the deck and traced the pattern onto the sheeting using a sharpie. I then cut the sheeting on these lines and laid it over the HydroTurf as a template.

This worked great and allowed for a very accurate installation. There may also be other ways to do this, but this worked well for me.

Nice, looks very neat!

My plan B was to use that technique, I ended up creating a template with masking tape and tracing it. But in hindsight the clear plastic option would have been a lot more accurate.
