[@robertrekiel6717]

Finally a video that shows exactly how to do the corners, really appreciate this thanks legend

[@harborkayak]

Very helpful! Thanks for the video, happy fishing.

[@scottcalkins1248]

Excellent video. Thank you for taking the time. I’m completely redoing my old fishing boat….looks just like your boat. Very helpful! Takes a lot of the guesswork out.

[@jmillerdesign]

Super great example of carpeting! I appreciate it!

[@rob4f258]

Appreciate the video. Im going to use this info for my truck. My dog's bed will sit on top so when we camp out, he can sleep in. Thanks

[@Greatlefty300]

Awesome video. Exactly what I'm about to do myself on my fishing boat. Thank you!!

[@ReneaDooserider]

Very nice work specially explaining the corners.

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Thanks!

멋지네요 very nice video

[@Simon-pz5dt]

Nice video. Straight to the point, with the necessary detail. Thanks mate. Curious, is contact adhesive not necessary between the carpet and ply? I thought most people used it?

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Yes it is. I didn't use t on the storage area lids since they are so small. Probably should have. I definitely used it on the entire floor.

[@Simon-pz5dt]

@@studnickaaquatics80 Sounds good. Thanks for reply mate.

[@comstock1964]

Cool Video. Great technique and one of the very few that are actually helpful...thanks

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Thanks. I am hoping to re-carpet my boat this summer. I will make a video series on the project.

[@Loftydsm]

Dude this was so helpful thank you.

[@chmann7476]

Great video, but the final stapling of the corner tabs was out of camera sight.

[@tomb4610]

Great video, I love watching this type of stuff.

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Robi.T7]

Thank you for talking me off the ledge!

[@marklundegren]

Is there a difference between indoor-outdoor carpet and boat carpet, whether in terms of construction, texture, or appearance? I'm searching online for black indoor-outdoor carpet for a project, but all that is coming up in this color is listed as boat carpet. Thanks, and nice tutorial!

[@BrianMonticello]

What kind of plywood did you use?

[@crimsonnred]

Like a pro! This will help

[@studnickaaquatics80]

If the doors are any bigger that these you will also want to use outdoor carpet glue.

[@kianm8441]

i’m doing this for a false floor in my 4wd. how do i do this with thick marine carpet

[@studnickaaquatics80]

You will have to use Marine Carpet Glue. I used it on my boat renovation. I did not use it on these doors because they were so small.

[@CHAD-RYAN]

Sorry you lost everything from a fire. I hope you get back and better than before

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Thanks

[@jeepster919]

Glue?

[@studnickaaquatics80]

These door are so small that I didn't use glue. Probably should have but not enough room for the carpet to stretch... When I do the boat floor I will definitely use glue.

[@cencalclassicxl3875]

Good stuff thanks

[@CHAD-RYAN]

Use a pair of pliars to pull the carpet tight when you staple the carpet to the bottom

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Thanks for the tip.

[@bobmarleystoe]

Nice little boat dean i have a 20 foot cuddy i keep at my house in ireland for sea fishing .dont know what you guys call it but we call it a cuddy.has the compartment at the front withwindows and 2 doors you can fit 4 people inside if the weather takes a turn has running lights for night fishing too.ive got a camping stove and sleeping bags in it incase the kids get tired love the boat..did you not think of aluminium tops instead of wood for your project.

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Sounds like a nice boat. What fish do you catch out there. I went with the wood because I had a piece of marine grade plywood in my shop. I do like the idea of aluminum.

[@alexdanielson1116]

Very helpful. Thank you for the video!

[@bobmarleystoe]

Yeah great night fishing too alot of big fish at night 90 to 120 lbs depending on the species

[@CHAD-RYAN]

Make sure you put the carpet all the same way. If not it will reflect the light differently and some spots will look darker than others. Its the same affect as a baseball field lawn when its been cut and is checkered

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Excellent point. It's all in the details.

[@F-N-C]

I wish you could come redo mine lol

[@sagnbaby]

back when wood was so much less expensive

[@studnickaaquatics80]

So true!

[@goodmorningsundaymorning4533]

Im watching this to recarpet my cat tree 🐾 But I only use staples until the glue dries, then I remove staples.

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Great idea. I did the same thing on my boat carpet. It took a lot of staples in some areas. Removing them after the glue was dry worked great. Good Luck on the Cat Tree.

[@bobmarleystoe]

I catch tope mackrel herring cod rock cod flounder plaice.cole fish.alsorts the tope have a good fight to them but they are sharks

[@studnickaaquatics80]

Sounds like a lot of fun John.
