[QUOTE="thedude, post: 447871, member: 23372"] The fact that it came with a Minn kota edge 40 (with foot control) and a color fishfinder was a really nice bonus. My first two questions for the group are 1. The floor was carpeted and terminated into a riveted strip a few inches up the side. Should I remove and reinstall this? Maybe I could leave and tuck the new carpet into it? I have not riveted before but seems straight forward enough. Or should I just run the carpet to the edge of the floor and not worry about it. 2. I have lots of adhesive residue after pulling up the old carpet. I have read about some ways to remove including chemical from zissner, wire brush and disc grinder attachments. Has anyone used citrus strip? It works wonders on furniture with paint and varnish layers. I like how easy it is to work with. Pics included.
