Carpet Replacement In 1975 CV-16ss

[fireman24mn]

I was wondering where to get some carpet for my boat? It needs to be replaced. Would like as close to original as possible. It is the brown carpet and the boat is Gold Metal Flake.

Thanks

Anyone know where a good place is to buy some original looking carpet?

Afton Marine is a distributor of Corinthian carpet. Not cheap but the carpet used by some boat manufacters. That is where I bought the carpet for my V-153.

I bought mine at Overtons, I beleive for all 3 boats I have replaced it on. I am a little disappointed with the stuff I most recently bought for the 175 because it is so thin. On the other hand, if its too thick, it would lay over contours very well.
I did check out Corinthian and its nice stuff but I would have had a lot of waste due to the sizes they sell. This stuff will do for now.

I was at Mill's Fleet/Farm last night. They have some really good looking rubber backed in many colors for around $4.50.

I used the fleet farm stuff. I think it turned out nice, we will see how it holds up to regular use.
