platform/transom padding

Looking to find some type of padding to protect the small area on the transom just about the platform from boards hitting (basically the width of the transom and about 2-3" in height). Are there any products already cut that will do the trick or is there somewhere to buy a kit that can be cut to fit. Thanks.

I think I found something that will work from Seadek.

I have seadek on my swim platform and I love it!! I was thinking about putting the leftover on the transom as well. I ordered the thicker stuff for the platform, but if I were ordering simply for the transom I would go with the thinner stuff.

I use Gator Grip, it comes in sheets that can be cut to suit your needs.

Hate -
We named our boat the same thing! I figured there had to be another one out there, but hadn't seen one yet

Yeah I doubt I was the first on that one.

Hate - I think thats what Moomba is using as OEM padding on the platform, looks identical to the platform on my new XLV

My wife made this transom pad using 1/2" foam carpet padding covered with vinyl. It is strapped to the transom with parachute clips. Works great.
