    Also I never glue the carpet down just stretch it tight and staple underneath the fasten with SS screw's and Finish washer's make's it a whole lot easier to change the carpet later on if needed .

    Nice Fishing Boat! You see too many guys with a $25,000 boat and can never afford to put it in the water :)

    That's the same thing i did when i put the aluminum floor in my jon boat (well, except for the stapling part). It works good and is easy to replace when that time comes. In fact, i think that's the same exact indoor/outdoor carpet I used. I was amazed how easily the slime washed off of it with just a spray from the garden hose!
