[QUOTE="super_dork, post: 219564, member: 6531"] Thanks! I really hope she turns out nice. The wrap and staple is what I thought from day one but I've been waffling. I'll give that a shot. So, do you just slit the carpet, screw the deck down then glue it back over the screw holes? I just don't want a bunch of screws showing everywhere. If it comes down to it, I can pull out the floors and maybe rework some of the seat supports and trolling motor mount. I just ordered 6'x20' light grey from SportsMan's Guide for $109 https://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/lancer-enterprises-inc-marine-carpet.aspx?a=790775 as recommedned in the materials link page. I also ordered carpet glue. We'll see how it goes. I also just ordered the electrical. I got 2 bus bars, 2 50 amp manual reset breakers and a switch panel from Amazon. They should be here Wednesday. Only 8 days in on this deal and almost ready to get wet! I just hope my wife doesn't decide to add up all the trips to the store. I've been splitting them between about 4 places so it's not as obvious :D [/QUOTE]
