I agree, you would be good on the decks.

Started some carpeting and electrical today! I'm in love with this 24oz carpet! It's ridiculous how nice it is, and easy to apply. It really sticks to the glue good. I must say I'm impressed. Boatcarpetbuys.com
I got a 8.5ft x 20ft roll with 2 gallons of glue for less than $300. The countdown is on. I'm trying to finish it in 11 days. We'll see!

A couple things I learned the hard way:

The glue boatcarpetbuy sells by the gallon is not for aluminum and I used about 240 sq ft of carpet on my pro175 with very little waste.

Bcb recommends a solvent based adhesive for aluminum, ie contact cement.

What happened with the glue I have glued a couple of pieces with it and it seems to be very strong on the aluminum

I haven't had any issues with the flat panels yet. It's the lids around the hinges that seem to be coming loose. I bought some big syringes and pumped contact cement in. That seems to be holding the loose spots.
 
Thank you for the information I still have some of that trowel on outdoor carpet cement I might use for the hatches

Made a little progress this week. I'm so happy that I decided to take the gauges out of that console and paint it it turned out great. I ran the electrical for five of the LED lights on one side. The picture was taken about 11 o'clock at night there were no other lights on in the garage besides the LEDs. It's really going to make it nice Landing a fish at night time. I really won't be able to use them too much during the summer because I know they will attract tons of bugs

I just cleaned it and wiped it down with acetone and spray painted it with high heat enamel.
