Have you ever stepped on the gunwale of a boat and slipped, or felt like you were going to slip? Do you lay a towel over the gunwale when your wife or girlfriend gets on board to protect the finish from her black soled shoes. If you have carpet in the cabin or salon and you fish, then you know the true meaning of smelling like fish all the time. Every time someone goes in to go to the head or get a snack, they track in fish blood and slime from the deck. It's even better if it's squid juice. Ever had a mechanic or service person of any kind work on the boat and every time he goes in or out he tracks in dirt from the parking lot or grease from the engine room.

Boatmat.com has the answer to these problems and more with a very attractive and safe cover for your gunwale, deck and salon. The mats and runners are made from Sunbrella canvas and have a non-skid backing. These are great because they can be rolled up and stored in a tiny space so as to be out of the way, they are easily cleaned and if ruined by accident are easily and inexpensively replaced compared to repairing your gel coat, teak, or carpet. You can see the standard pre-printed or plain mats and runners in the catalog at boatmat or you can call me and I will tell you how to go about getting custom designs or names printed on your mats or runners.

These are great little items and even if you have a small boat the gunwale mat is perfect for loading and unloading gear and passengers over the side of the boat. The Gunwale mats have weights sewn in and a non-skid backing so they will not blow off the side of the boat.
