Air Deck floor protector

Does anyone use a floor cover or protector when fishing from an airdeck sib? Just got a new Honwave T38 and wondering if I should get any extra protection from sharp hooks and pliers.

Any recommendations?

Ben

I always put a quilted throw down in mine folded over to match the internal space. Makes it a lot more comfier and catches any stones getting back in.

"Snap in" Boat carpet has a non slip backing. And the top won't slip either, it's carpet. I identifed "Snap in" carpet because glue down carpet doesn't have it.
I like the Perelli dot rubber in the previous post but I can see it slipping. Plastic on plastic with water all around.

Definitely does not slip but if you spill petrol on it (which you will) it leaks staining yellow liquid which is immovable from the white Zodiac floor!

I use 2mm rubber boot liner on my Seapro 360A. Works a treat.
