Phat,
One gallon got me two coats with a little leftover for spot touch up's. The consistancy of the paint is controlled by the type of roller Duraback supplies, they send you two rollers. You would get more then enough paint for a 13 ft Whaler. It does cover the spider cracks awesome and in time I will see if they come back through. As for walking barefoot on it, I actually found it nice to walk on barefoot whereas my wife said it was hurting her feet. Personally I didn't find it that bad to walk barefoot on but, I don't think I would want to be barefoot all day walking on it. As for "how gritty", I seriously doubt anyone will slip now on my boat deck, great stuff.
MJ,
I wanted so badly to go with the Sea Board but the cost was outrageous. The cheapest I could find was two pieces on Ebay which would have cost me $131.00 plus shipping cost of $25.00. I actually got the idea for the decking boards on here believe it or not. Someone posted a picture of a guy who did the entire floor with decking boards and that's when the lightbulb went on in my head! It was so inexpensive to make and just my time to cut to length and put together. They are rugged as heck, there was two of us fatties standing on one hatch and it never budged. Somewhat on the heavy side but it is what it is as they say.
So thanks guys for the comments and this website is the best!
