[QUOTE="bdub065, post: 346653, member: 13806"] The next few days of work was spent cleaning up the wood and laying down the marine vinyl: I got my marine vinyl from a local Smokercraft dealer in Oregon called Stevens Marine they were a great resource for my parts including some unique larger rivets. I used 3m Professional 90 spray adhesive for ease and if I did it again I would use the spreadable glue in the buckets. The hold is amazing so far but I had to use 5 cans for my application at about 12$ a piece you can save a lot on the slightly messier glue. No harm done but could have saved some cash here. Lastly I secured with SS staples on the back side. I saved the old carpet to use as a template and since much of the bow layout remained unchanged it made my vinyl job an easy one. I finished the doors and mounted the front seat post mount and my only regret is the doors arent as tight as they could be. The boat is going to be garage kept to keep dry and nothing in the front will be harmed by a little water on the rainy days but I will probably cut new doors that will fit more flush. [/QUOTE]
