Just wondering where you bought your carpet? Lools like a heck of a job you did. Now go get some butla slime on it and break it in.
Good Job. Now that you know how I'll bring my ride over.
That looks like a very professional job Mr. Jim. I look forward to meeting you at Fall Camp.
Looks dang good Mr. Jim. 'Course, you'd have to whip me with a 12' BnM BGJP until you wore it down to the 3rd eye to get me to carpet a boat though.

Wow! Looks like ya'll did a great job!! That is something I never would have attempted to do myself! LOL

Sweet. Looks great!
Good job Mr. Jim
Mr Jim , Despite what WB had to say , I got mine done for $200.00 plus the carpet and glue and didnt break a sweat. Materials through a friend at Lowes was around $100.00. So WB -PFFFFFFFFFFFT!
Mr Jim your new carpet looks great but play time is over. Now, please go Butla and stomp a minnow in it.:D
the before looks like yours
Don't look Mr. Jim!!!!!!
I tolt ya, but you wouldn't listen.
Let's see $200 divided by 32 hours....naught, naught, carry the naught......that's like.....cheap.
