What do yall think?

I think we need bigger pics!!!  

What kind of carpet? how much was it? where did you get it? how was it installed?

I'm a looking and I'm a liking  8-)

looks great, i did the same thing to my grandfather's jon boat about a year ago, alot of blood, sweat and tears were put into that thing. we put new everything in that boat, but it turned out awesome.good job on your boat re-do

Looks like a new boat Dave!!!

Gravy- the carpet can be bought at Lowes.  It's cheap and is applied with 3m 99 spray glue and stainless staples.  Basic upholstery skills are required.  Very easy.

Sweet job!

How does it handle the extra weight?

I am not sure I havent had it on the water yet. :-?

The carpet I got at lowes it was like $70 for a 20 ft roll I used 3m 77 but I didnt know any better it worked great I dont know about the durrability and for my 14 ftr it took every bit of two cans probally would have been better if I would have used three. The 3m 99 is about $15 a can and the 3m 77 is $11 or $12. I didnt use all the carpet I had about 3ft left. Like LBH said it was really easy it took me so long because of my work schedule. I think the hole thing might have cost 250 to 300 thats seats and all.

Backpain did those pictures help you or do you need some more?

Looks awesome! Now lets see it in the water with a fish hanging off the side!

One of the hatches open would be great. I am wondering how to get the proper support for under the hatches with say people standing on them. I am slowly (after owning the boat for almost a year) getting my plan together.

I kept the front two benchs in the boat and ran 2 by 3's between them for support for the front deck.

Yea they helped, sorry took so long to respond. This message board software hates me, I basicly have to reset my password every day and sometimes I still can't log in lol.

That's usually something simple like "disabling" a pop up blocker.  Post your situation in "Everything else" and I'm sure you'll find the "fix"

Okay I ripped all the old carpet up.

the plywood is still in pretty good shape i plan on reusing it 8-)
