    Think someone had carpeted this before with comerial style , has like a backing to it just falling apart as I'm pulling it.
    Guess all the staples and the weight of the pontoon was holding it on .

    Those staples arent any fun to put in or take out. They do make a staple puller that works pretty well.

    This is on the back underneath see all the staple holes there were more staples on the stacked carpet on top of that.
    I'm going to let the wood dry out tomorrow, i tested it it's solid.
    After it's dry I'll put Thompsons on all of them put the marine garage bunk carpet on it, the new led lights then the trailer will be done..
