Next time, he'll bring a compression checker. I worry more about the overly-religious proclaimers than just normal guys. Some are good and true. Others are just putting on a show. You cannot tell one from the other unless you buy something from them or play a round of golf with them.****You've done a great job with your boat. Just enjoy it. Don't worry about high speeds. I never caught a bass while water-skiing.As far as lures catching in the carpet...I saw a post on another site where a guy bought some plastic fluorescent light tube covers.  He cut them up; slit them down the side;  and put them over his lures to keep the hooks from catching on everything.  After reading that, I took a plastic water bottle and cut the skinny end partially off.  I slit it and then snapped it over a lure. It provided some protection for keeping the hooks out of the carpet.  You might tinker around with that idea.regards,  richg99p.s. I own a 1648 Lowe side console.  I like it a lot. 50hp Johnson does all I need it to do.  Heck, my local lakes are all No Wake....so I am spending a lot of time just putt-putting around.</blockquote>
