Looking to have my '97 Stratos re-carpeted.  

The carpet is not in bad shape, but it is pulling a bit on the edges.  The carpets on the models aren't nearly as good and sharp as the carpet on the last few years' models.

Anyone in the business or had their boats re-carpeted.  Mine is a 17 footer.  Curious to the estimated price for the carpet and labor.  Any knowledge would be helpful.   Thanks.

Never had the carpet replaced in my boat but I would think a few phone calls to dealers would give you a ball park idea.

Good luck.

I had a Gambler 19/5 footer completely redone including seats and all carpet for $1200 and it was perfect. I am picky and told the guy I would be hard to please and was willing to pay extra to make it perfect so thats why it was $1200. In my opinion it was well worth the money.In my case the carpet had to be tucked and glued to the inside edges of the lockers, looked pretty hard to do to me but this guy done it perfectly. Gamblers use a really good grade of carpet from the factory and I also told him I wanted something as good or better, so be sure to let them know you dont want cheap carpet. Cheap carpet will be smashed down the first time you fish in the rain.
