Thread: Best Carpet for Trailer Bunks?

  1. #1

    When the boat gets totally water proof, need to dump it at the marina, run back home and replace the wood and carpet on the trailer. Totally rotted!! Hope it didn't hurt the bottom of the boat.
    Anybody have good luck with a certain type of carpet that will hold up a day or 4?

    They make a carpet just for it... It comes in a role I just did it last year it was 10 bucks. I would ( and did) use presure treated for the bunks. I glued and nailed( roofing nails) the carpet on... It should last a long time.

    Buy the wood and carpet (I got mine at Lowes)....Cover the new wood with the new carpet, take it with you along with a cordless drill and asorted tools to the boat launch...Replace the wood in the parking lot.

    Just seen a guy doing this early Sunday. he had afew buddies to help. 1 to stay with the boat at the dock and another two helping with the replacement. Got it done in less than a 1/2 hour. Nice pit crew.
