A Regal boat recently came into Florida Marine Customs for a full upgrade—new SeaDek® flooring, a custom acrylic switch panel and new gauges, LED lighting all around, and a high-quality marine audio system featuring all new JL Audio speakers with Fusion remotes. After all that was installed, we had a new custom boat cover made for the boat.
🛠 SeaDek® Boat Flooring
We installed SeaDek®, a top choice for custom marine flooring. Made from durable foam, it’s:
- Soft and comfortable underfoot
- Slip-resistant, even when wet
- Shock-absorbent to reduce fatigue
- Great at protecting surfaces from scratches and wear
- Quiet, thanks to its noise-reducing properties
SeaDek® also looks great and can be customized in different colors, patterns, and textures to match any boat’s style.
🎛 Custom Acrylic Switchpanel and New Gauges
To go with the new gauges, we custom-designed and CNC-cut a sleek acrylic switch panel using BocaTech Switches. This not only gives the boat a refreshed, modern look but also ensures a perfect fit and clean layout. Our team specializes in precision work and creative designs to make every project look factory-finished—but better.
🔊 JL Audio Marine Speakers & Fusion Radio
To complete the upgrade, we installed durable and powerful Kicker marine speakers along with a Fusion radio. Built for the marine environment, these audio components handle water, sun, and salt with ease—delivering crisp, clear sound every time you’re on the water.
Whether it’s flooring, audio, or custom panels, Florida Marine Customs brings expert craftsmanship and top brands to your boat upgrade.

At Next Level Car Audio, we love a challenge. When a Ferrari Portofino rolled into our shop, we knew this installation would be nothing short of precision craftsmanship. The project? A custom Alpine Electronics stereo upgrade and a K40 Electronics speed ticket protection system seamlessly integrated into the front and rear bumpers.
Precision Meets Performance
Ferrari vehicles are engineered for performance and elegance, which means every modification must match their high standards. Installing a custom stereo system in the Portofino required extreme attention to detail. Alpine Electronics provided the perfect high-fidelity sound solution, enhancing the driving experience without compromising the factory design.
Our team carefully designed and fitted the Alpine system, ensuring:
✅ Crystal-clear sound at high speeds
✅ Custom fabrication for a seamless fit
✅ Minimal weight impact to maintain Ferrari’s performance
The results? A sound experience that complements the thrill of driving this Italian masterpiece.
Seamless Wireless Phone Charging Integration
Convenience is key in any modern vehicle, so we went a step further by installing a wireless phone charging pad under the dash, perfectly positioned between the driver and passenger seats.
This addition allows for:
⚡ Effortless charging—no more tangled cords
⚡ Discreet placement—hidden yet accessible
⚡ OEM-style integration that blends with the Portofino’s interior
This premium convenience feature ensures the driver stays powered up without compromising the Ferrari’s clean interior design.
The Ultimate Speed Ticket Protection: K40 Electronics
No high-performance vehicle is complete without the right protection on the road. We installed a K40 Electronics speed ticket protection system, one of the most advanced radar and laser defense systems available. This required precise mounting in the front and rear bumpers to ensure maximum coverage.
K40’s advanced technology provides:
🔵 Full 360-degree radar detection
🔵 Custom alerts for hidden speed traps
🔵 Stealth installation with no visible components
Notice in the picture above that the you can notice the parking sensors, but with a closer look you can barley spot the 3 laser diffusers. By integrating the K40 system flawlessly, we kept the Ferrari’s sleek design intact while offering the owner peace of mind on every drive.

At Next Level, we take pride in providing top-quality upgrades that enhance the comfort, style, and durability of your boat. Recently, we had the opportunity to install SeaDek® marine flooring on a Tidewater center console boat, giving it a whole new level of functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Why Choose SeaDek?
If you’re looking to upgrade your boat’s flooring, SeaDek® is the perfect choice. This closed-cell, non-absorbent EVA foam offers:

A Perfect Upgrade for the Tidewater Center Console
Tidewater boats are known for their smooth ride and high-performance capabilities, making them a favorite among anglers and boating enthusiasts. However, traditional non-skid surfaces can be tough on your feet after a long day on the water. By installing SeaDek®, we transformed this Tidewater into a more comfortable and stylish vessel.
The Installation Process
Our expert team at Next Level followed a precise installation process to ensure a flawless fit:
🔹 Custom Measurements & Digital Design – Using advanced templating techniques, we created a perfect match for the Tidewater’s deck layout.
🔹 Precision Cutting – SeaDek panels were cut to fit every curve and contour of the boat.
🔹 Seamless Application – The flooring was securely applied using high-bond marine-grade adhesive, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Final Results: A Sleek and Functional Upgrade
The finished product completely transformed the boat’s deck. The owner now enjoys:
✔ A sleek, modern look that enhances the Tidewater’s overall style
✔ A cushioned, comfortable surface for long days on the water
✔ A durable, low-maintenance solution that stands up to sun, salt, and water

Never a bad day of fishing in this customized Maverick Fishing boat, loaded with upgrades. Starting with fully customized SeaDek® sidewalls, flooring, custom SeaDek® engine decals and registration numbers; with custom graphic cutouts of SeaDek® using our CNC machine also. We added new technology, new seat upholstery, two Power-Pole’s, and a Troll Motor. We also added a new Bimini Top, a JL Audio Marine speaker system upgrade, and a fully custom built center console with a new chartplotter screen and a new switch panel made out of acrylic with built in lighting and new Bocatech Switches.
SeaDek®
Setting Sail with SeaDek®: A New Level of Comfort
Navigating the waters can be both exhilarating and soothing. To make the experience even more enjoyable, we embarked on the journey of upgrading a boat’s flooring with SeaDek®, a premium marine flooring solution. SeaDek® offers a soft and comfortable surface that transforms the boat’s interior into a space of luxurious relaxation. Whether it’s lounging in the sun or moving around the boat, SeaDek® adds an extra layer of comfort that enhances the entire experience.
Innovative Utility: The SeaDek® Ruler for Measuring Fish
Beyond comfort, a Maverick boat became a haven for anglers with an innovative addition – the SeaDek® ruler. This practical solution not only enhances the fishing experience but also adds a touch of convenience. The SeaDek® ruler is more than just a measurement tool; it’s a connection to the sport of fishing itself. As anglers reel in their catch, they can easily measure their success right on the boat, creating memories that are marked by both the thrill of the catch and the convenience of technology.
Custom Built Center Console
We built this center console fully custom and embedded technology into it. Made out of fiberglass, we were able to custom fit a new chartplotter from Garmin and add the engine gauges, plus a new light bar. The end result looks like the center console came from the factory.
Chartplotter and Switches Upgrade
New features:
Garmin 8600 Series 12 In Touchscreen IPS Multi-Function Display Chartplotter/ Sonar Combo, BlueChart G3 and LakeVu. It was also given an Airmar B75m thru hull transducer. Newly installed BocaTech Switchboard that was custom made from acrylic on our CNC machine then backlit with LED lighting.
The Custom Designed Center Console and Bocatech Switchboard
The fully custom-built center console pod is fully integrated with acrylic cutouts that showcased the chartplotter and radio screens. These cutouts weren’t just functional; they were a testament to design precision. The navigation screen, a gateway to charting new horizons, a connection to the world beyond the waters, were elegantly embedded within the console pod. This arrangement ensured that vital information was readily available without disrupting the boat’s aesthetic.
The Bocatech switch board found its home within the center console, the boat’s interior look took on a new dimension. The center console became a command center, where every function was at the boater’s fingertips. The beauty of the switches aligned perfectly with the boat’s aesthetics, creating an environment that was both inspiring and intuitive.
Lighting and Sound System
Sound system from JL Audio. LED lighting and Lightbar by Razor Lumitec.
Nestled within the center console, this lightbar brought illumination that was as functional as it was stunning. With razor-sharp precision, the lightbar lit up the boat’s surroundings, extending the journey into the night. The waters beneath seemed to come alive with a magical glow, marking a passage into the unknown with a touch of luminous brilliance.
Bimini Top Cover
Crafting Comfort: The Importance of a Bimini Top Cover
A bimini top cover isn’t just a practical accessory; it’s a gateway to comfortable leisure. It provides a haven from the sun’s intensity while allowing boaters to savor the surrounding beauty without worry. In the heart of the open waters, the bimini top cover becomes a retreat, a place where conversations flow, meals are shared, and moments are cherished.
Custom Upholstery and Fabrication
We gave this Maverick custom made upholstery for maximum comfort out on the water.
We powder coated the frame of the seat and the tower around the motor.
Power Pole and Trolling Motor
This customer asked for a new trolling motor and a shallow anchor system both from Power Pole. The Move PV trolling motor was chosen. Power Pole scoured every inch of standard trolling motors for reoccurring failure points unacceptable to top anglers. This allowed us to reinforce MOVE with backup systems on top of backup systems, on top of even more backup systems, in just the right places, to maximize resiliency. All because we know seasoned anglers demand the most out of their trolling motor and live by them every day.
The ultimate game-changer in Total Boat Control, MOVE PV has been crafted with almost a decade’s worth of hard work and dedication from Power-Pole. This next-gen brushless trolling motor is designed to deliver unparalleled power, impressive durability and extreme efficiency – all while operating with near absolute silence.
Anchors Away!
This Dorado got upgraded with custom upholstery, a custom center console, upgraded lighting, got decked out in SeaDek®, and got a next level audio upgrade.
Audio
Custom installed JL Audio Marine Subwoofer, 7.7 inch Marine Coaxial Speakers with Transflective™ LED Lighting, 8.8 inch Marine Coaxial Speakers, and a Marine System Amplifier.
Lighting
A New Horizon of Illumination: The Shadow Caster SCR 24 Series Lights
The allure of the sea under the stars can be enchanting, and the Shadow Caster SCR 24 Series lights are designed to capture that magic. With multi-color capabilities, these lights can transform the boat’s surroundings into a canvas of vibrant colors, creating an unforgettable atmosphere for nighttime excursions. From soothing blues to vivid reds, the lighting possibilities are as diverse as the sea itself.
Shadow Caster SCR 24 Series lights installed, with multi color lights, and also with Surge Protection, Reverse Polarity Protection, and Thermal Throttling Protection.
Surge Protection
Navigating the waters requires both beauty and security. That’s why the incorporation of Surge Protection in this lighting upgrade is crucial. Unpredictable weather conditions or power fluctuations can pose a threat to electronic components. Surge Protection acts as a safeguard, preventing sudden voltage spikes from damaging the lights or other sensitive equipment on board.
Reverse Polarity Protection
In the dynamic world of boating, the installation of equipment can sometimes result in incorrect wiring. With Reverse Polarity Protection in place, the Shadow Caster SCR 24 Series lights can withstand incorrect wiring connections without sustaining damage. This protection ensures that the lights continue to operate flawlessly even in situations where wiring mistakes could have proven disastrous.
Thermal Throttling Protection
The marine environment can be demanding, subjecting equipment to varying temperatures. To maintain optimal performance and longevity, the inclusion of Thermal Throttling Protection is essential. This protection mechanism monitors the temperature of the lights and adjusts their output to prevent overheating. This not only ensures consistent performance but also enhances the lights’ lifespan.
A Symphony of Light and Protection
With the installation of the Shadow Caster SCR 24 Series lights and the incorporation of advanced protections, this boat underwent a remarkable transformation. As the sun sets and the stars emerge, the boat now becomes a beacon of color and elegance on the water, drawing attention and admiration.

Our team integrated the Alpine Amplifiers behind the front seats where the back seats of this car would be, to provide that seamless, OEM look.
