Really nice work goldfish. Great craftsmanship really makes the difference. While I know its not the point you can still lay you old removable carpet over the top on rare occasions if the need arises (when I dont know). We have our carpet out and the cabin floor is bland to say the least...looks like I know what I'm doing next month.

We have the Flexiteek installed throughout the boat.....but it is HOT on bare feet when it bakes in the sun.....I have considered having a carpet made for the main deck & helm and am considering options for the swim platform.


You are right!! we had on our first boat and could not walk with bare feet under the sun, we solved with custom carpets fixed with snaps, and the two small platforms beside the outboard engine we took continuosly wet... Flexiteek it's a great product, but not under the sun. :mrgreen: maybe for boaters in Greenland...

Bellisimo, Oscar!

If that floor is in a '98 258V, I am surprised to see the bilge hatch in front of the head. Is one under my '99 258V cabin carpet, too, I wonder?

Io abitato a Saluzzo (CN) molti anni fa. Ciao!

Ciao! I've been in Cuneo 2 weeks ago for job pourposes. BY the way yes it was a '98 258V, there should be a bilge hatch in front of your head too. It' s useful because the mid bildge pump (I mean the one in the cabin), is not able to pump out water if you ave only 1 inch bildge water level, thus you can open the hatch and make it dry with a sponge.
This hatch is available also on the 268V, i think it should be available on every Vista.
:wink:
