I've done it but only going the
cheap route.
I used shermin williams 2 part
epoxy floor
paint "tile clad"($100 for 2 gallons/very tough). This was my "base layer". Not advertised as
marine grade but it says so right on the can :-)

On top of this I used rustoleum restore 10x deck paint(bought at home depot for cheap). It has a rubbery texture that feels nice on your feet(like kiwigrip).

I taped off a grid using painters tape(easier cleaning/draining) and put on 1 thick coat(thicker the better based on instructions). I let it cure for a week before using the boat(forgot how long they said but this was longer).
Sold the boat but it held for 4 years and still looked great.
