Go with the vinyl decking, last longer and easier to install. Comes in different colors and patterns like camo. I believe it is called merideck.

Lowes in Conway has some. Be sure to get the "Hookless". The nap has no loop for the hook to hang.
Just use indoor/outdoor carpet glue. Lowes has it as well.
I have done my boat 3 times now and not to "Ring my own bell" but I have gotten pretty darn good at it.
Arts marine sells several different colors tho they are a little more expensive and personally... I'd rather spend my money elsewhere...
I bought some at Carpet Barn last time for a GREAT price but it is not hookless and can be a pain!
If you need anything else holler!
Yes!Quote:

I've had my boat 10 years and done the carpet in it 3 times.
Thanks for the input guys - any idea if somewhere local carries Marideck and the glue required for it?
Arts gots it. It's like $14 a running foot.
6' wide roll.
I put marine vinyl on my pontoon a few years ago and got mine from Cabelas

Merideck is built right here in north little rock and they supply it to cabela's and all the big name stores. Call Jim Newman( who is also a big crappie fisherman) at 590-6473. He will treat you right and has all the supplies to install it.

The Ford dealership in Russellville has a fantastic spray in liner that would go good in a boat
I installed 2ft x2 ft commercial modular tile carpet in my G3. Very durable and reduces noise up to 40 % compared to a hard surface option. The carpet backing is a flexible PVC and handles water and the outdoor elements very well. 3 years and looks as good as the day I installed it.Quote:

It's will withstand alumibright and a pressure washer that's how I clean my boat makes that aluminum pop and cleans the carpet. Feels good to bare feet and very quiet when you drop something.
He will sell to anyone, tell him Dennis sent you his way!Quote:
