    Default Carpet Replacement


    Does anyone around Baton Rouge replace carpet in boats?
    Worst case I will replace it myself during the Christmas break but if I can find someone that will replace it for a decent price I am all about it.
    I have struggled with carpet before and did a average job but always see the places I should have done better because of being impatient.

    Ill be gone for two weeks in coming up soon so if I found somebody to replace the carpet for me while I'm gone that is a wonderful Christmas present for myself.

    Have you thought about NOT going back with carpet? When my carpet wears out, I am going to spray bed-liner in my boat. It is almost slip proof and when you get home from a day of good slimy fishing, just take the water hose and rinse her out. Just a thought.

    I know a two people that have gone from carpet to a liner.
    My neighbor likes it a little more because of clean up and the other hates it because it gets hot. He went with a darker gray so they could easily be the problem.
    I also thought about when I’m running from spots and my rods bouncing on the deck being on carpet as oppose to a hard surface. I will most likely go back with carpet for the sole purpose of I don’t like wearing shoes in the boat.
    Its more comfortable than my carpet at home....another reason to spend more time in the boat.
