Deck Tiles

[WoundUpMarine]

I know there have been a few threads on the subject, but I was wondering if anyone could ID the tiles used on this boat? Where do you get them from and how are they secured, tar?

Thanks!

WoundUp those look like the bridge tiles talked about in the other threads just painted white to keep them cool and to keep them from expanding and shrinking in different temps. I have some cans of the glue used to adhere them to the deck at the shop I'll get some pics for you later

interesting picture, where did you find it

strange, I took this picture. Tiles are set in tar, yes. Not sure what exactly the tiles are but I have seen them many times before. Yes, they are painted, it is a 40 young brothers, and the tiles are what ever they were using back then.

There was a thread on these a couple of weeks ago. They are no longer manufactured. Luzo fuel in New Bedford bought out the last of the existing stock.

We used to paint them with white line paint like they use on the highway.
