Over the years, I, and many many others have found these guys to have excellent carpet,service and prices. They have the needed dimensions for many boats already, and no homeade template is needed in alot of cases.
Shop around, and see what you can find, several options out there.

Hey Corinthian -- give is forum members a huge discount! :D That's big coin for us! We're all cheapskates![/quote]


Of course. Of course! I just set up a pretty sweet group buy on the Correct Craft forums and saved a couple of those guys some cash. I think everyone in the boating world is a cheapskate in this economy right now! Just don't go sellin' your boat off yet! :mrgreen:

What is an off season. Winter is the best time to boat, less people and more reason to stay in the cabin with a bottle of rum :P

Dropping mine off at the Dealer for Winterization this Sunday. :( From there, it's back to the garage for off season storage. All projects will wait until next Spring except for cleaning and waterproofing the mooring cover. First time for that in three seasons of use; it's starting to look a little dirty, but still keeps the boat bone dry.

Lets see:

1) Cry every night.
2) Dream of boating.
3) Would love to get the rubber swim mat for the swim deck.
4) Subwoofer for the stereo??

That about sums it up. Other than get my fat ass in better shape, not much else for the boat yet.

This weekend, would you believe that we cancelled this weekend up the River Murray because it's toooooo hot. The forcast for the area is 44 degrees celcius or around 115 F.

New Owner here. These are the things I have planned:

1. Deep clean. The boat is pristine (only 140 hours on the clock) but needs a deep cleaning. I plan to pull out all of the snap in carpet and scrub the entire interior. Clean out the hold under the floor etc. Also I am trying to decide the best way to clean all the carpets? Spray car wash maybe?
2. Wax. Boat needs a good waxing and there are a few spots in the black gel coat where fenders have rubbed it and I need to bring the color back.
3. Winterize. Already done.
4. Impeller and changing out all fluids in the engine and lower leg.
5. Upgrade stereo head unit so I can connect an IPOD (it has a Sony in Dash CD that has no aux capability)
6. I want to add the extended swim deck.
7. I am considering adding hydraulic trim tabs

Occasionally look at a huge green tarp next to the house. Maybe knock some snow off it ..........

Off season plan?? Sit in a dark corner of my home with the shades drawn and the lights off slowly rocking back and forth until April.

Actually just getting around to reading this thread. Two observations so far...

Ardy - Love that in Australia you even boat in your Blundstones! Here in the states you'd be thrown overboard!!

ric71 - Smart move to only post a picture of a Corona with a lime. Around here you get chastised for the mistake of going limeless!
