    The carpet is toast. It still looks decent in the pics but its thin and rotten. If your standing on the decks and turn around without picking up your feet it just rips the carpet up under your feet. I've ran this boat hard for over a year, over 100 miles up and down ky/barkley lakes. The motor is very sound. I got such a smoking deal on it because I'm pretty slick at swapping and trading around. I had a Toyota truck that I aquired in non running condition and got it for $800 I repaired it mostly with parts that I had already in my shop (im a 10 year Toyota master tech) then in turn traded the truck for this boat and got $700 boot thrown in on the deal. By the time I bought the oil injection delete parts, fixed the trim pump, new hoses, and a couple new batteries I'm in a pretty decent boat for about $500. Here's a pic I found taken after the carpet started coming off. It's gotten worse since this pic was taken.

    No Carpet or bedliner! If you want the absolute best floor for a boat, last floor you will put in, cool on the feet, non skid & just wash it out with a hose you owe it to yourself to check this stuff out. Great floor!

    You can't self install that product according to their website. They don't even show an option to purchase just a number to call for them to give you an estimate on installation

    **DING** Bring out your dead!

    I just bought a boat that has decent carpet, but I can see replacing it in a the next year. It's good enough to get me through the fall and maybe the spring. I really like the idea of not having carpet in my boat.

    1. Whoever thought carpet, wood or fiberglass + water is a good idea???
    2. Liner makes sense.
    3. Heat and standing... I'm sure the correct color will not be any hotter and standing, put a small piece of that foam or a work mat down.

    Spider rigging and dipping I spend the majority of my time sitting because of bad knees. OK, back on track, 4 pages and no pictures of fiberglass boats with some kind of coating? Post up what you have so we can see and give up your feedback.

    This was a G3 that I had. It came with vinyl. I added the front storage and rod locker. Got the added vinyl from Cabela's, it wound up being a perfect color match.

    Vinyl pro's -
    - mine wasn't slick, either from rain, frost, snow
    - blood, guts, beer, soda all hosed right off
    - JJ's magic didn't stain (I did grab some lake water quickly and splashed some water on it)
    - easily installed

    Cons -
    - no cushion, this is why you see the black anti fatigue mat up front

    The boat I'm currently working on, I'm wanting to put in one of the EVA faux foam floors. Something like this - https://www.amazon.com/Tseipoaoi-Flo.../dp/B08CKSX1F5

    I'm not a fan of carpet in boats either.

    Note - the reason for no engine, and 4x4's, I was in the process of swapping engines.

    Yes sir, that's why I have some reservations about using it. Are you getting what you pay for? Or is the other stuff that overpriced? Such as seadeck.
    Ive read through some of the reviews, it's mixed. However, most people only leave a review if there upset.
