[QUOTE="Derek, post: 196442, member: 2615"] Well yesterday was a long day but a very productive day. Dan and I banged out as much carpet as possible. We finished nearly everything except for the rear deck. I misplaced my pedestal mount for the rear, so we couldn't do that section until it is found/replaced. We used the carpet glue from the same manufacturer as the carpet and a glue trowel. Then we used contact cement on the edges and underside, stretched the edges and stuck it. The roll of carpet I bought was 8'6"x25' and I will not have a ton left. I would say any smaller roll would have run out.

These hatches were set in place 180* out. The grain is still running front to back but opposite way and it changed the look completely.
