Capri Carpet is the exact stuff all the top names (ranger, champion,basscat etc...) use on their boats. I have used the 20oz. and its great stuff, ultra high quality and easy to work with. Decent price too.
Carpet the deck after you attach it to the deck. It works great. Check 14 ft flat bottom sea nymph mod. We just finished her up and it looks great. The carpet was very easy. We had a stainless steel 3 ft ruler that we used to get in real tight to all the edges. Push the ruler up as close...
Hey Russ
Just wanted throw a big thanks your way for your assistance with some of our boat/trailer mods. I am co-building the sea nymph with basshole. Its almost complete and looks great. We are hoping to get the trailer this week. Its been in for major welding and overhaul. Overall the...
We got a crap load of stuff done today!!! We are now officially in the home stretch. Carpet the hatches, front trolling motor wired and mounted, carpet edging, hatch handles, hook up front depth finder and put that baby on the trailer. After that its time for the maiden voyage. Sure hope it...
I agree with alot of the posts but I really am a fan of topwater for big smallies. Jitterbugs in the dark or pop-r's in the morning/evening. Man they are awesome to catch. I think a 2.5 lber fights like a 5lb largemouth.
After a few added extras; recessed cup holders, recessed trolling rod holders, cleaned up some electric wires and a little vacumming we are almost ready to fix in the deck and add carpet. We also picked up some black fuel line tubing to fix to he deck as a molding for the carpet. Got kinda...

Basshole and I worked on the boat mods all weekend. We framed the whole thing and started to run some electronics. We are awaiting our carpet shipment, that is our hold up at this point. Im hoping it will be here today?!!! As soon as that gets here we can place and wire the 5 batteries...
Just an fyi for you builders looking for nice hatches. Go to https://www.rnrd.com/ ask for Robert Rabel. They actually make the aluminum hatches as seen in cabelas but they do custom work for very reasonable prices. They are about $20 cheaper on eaach hatch then cabelas and they are very...

Check out the whole post, basshole listed the company that deals the paint. The website is very helpful and the guys that work there are extremely helpful. We searched high and low for this stuff and its awesome. The primer and paint combo really looks great. Not all that expensive...
