I’ll bring a rug

I like carpet but as stated it's hard to keep clean. I also went with too light of a color when I done mine. If there is a next time I will install coffee colored carpet, just saying.

In the summer the carpet is hard to beat! I enjoy walking around in my boat without shoes and not burning up! I always said i would never have carpet but now I dont think I would go without it!

I have the vinyl deck covering in my tracker and I like it. No sand in my face when I’m running the river and easy to keep clean

I love my carpet, no noise!

Is the same color as worm dirt. Because that is the color I need. Spilt three boxes Sunday morning fishing the BG spawn.

I prefer carpet for numerous reasons.
Quiet,asy on bare feet, even when kneeling in shorts.
No glare from the sun...
I went with a gray color and don't have a problem keeping it clean. No cover running 55-65mph down the interstate gets rid of most debris. What remains I either shop vac out or wash out with a hose. End of season I do both. Minnows don't leave bedding behind, biggrin. However when I do use worms, the bedding vacuums out easily enough.
Blood washes out pretty easy too.

My biggest complaints about vinyl, too dang hot and slippery when wet.

I was surprised how clean it came with a good vacuum and the jet selection on a cheap garden hose sprayer
