hey guys it is time to re do the carpet in my boat. I have never done this before. I plan on stripping the carpet my self, and then taking it to a local marina to have the new stuff installed. My dry boxes have some leakes. Any suggestions on what to look for when the carpet comes off?

I'd check the seals on the box lids.  That is the most likely place.  Laquer thinner is a good product to make the old carpet turn loose.

ok thanks. is there anything I can use to seal the leaks?
