We have a product called Geo Deck on our dock and it has been maintenance  
free for the first three years. This past year we noticed some unusual 
expansion  and buckling of the materials. We are not alone with this problem and 
the  manufacturer will not honor the warranty. Apparently the company has 
been sold  several times and the new owners don't feel that they have any 
obligation to  honor the warranty. The fix for the dock will cost several 
thousand dollars  since it is a large dock. Hopefully you won't have the same 
problem.
If it were me, I would go back with 3/4" marine plywood and carpet.

This  winter i am replacing the cabin sole in my 1983 boat.  I have it 
cleaned  down to the glass. After glassing in some longitudinal pt stringers, I 
am  going to cover in a trex like composite decking.  I think its the 
perfect  choice too! Cant rot, wears well, machines with woodworking tools,   
heavy- down low where you need extra weight anyway, and economical.  Put  it 
down with stainless deck screws and its a lifetime job.
My only dilemma  is what color?
