[QUOTE="Rat, post: 141394, member: 1914"] Yea, it was aggravating to pump water every hour or so, but wasn't that bad I guess. I've had to it on some of the bigger lakes around here when I stayed out longer than I should have and got caught by a front. I washed her down just now and the mud came off pretty easily. I just used the water hose and a soft bristled brush; only required about 20 minutes of work.

One of the main reasons I wanted this type of finish is just why you see here. And in fact, this is pretty mild compared to a four day hunt at Granger; throw hog blood, fish slime and kids into the mix and carpet becomes a nightmare. So it performs perfectly for its intended use, it looks good and its easy to clean. I even had a guy at the courtesy dock asking me a bunch of questions on my rebuilt Jon, pretty cool. [/QUOTE]
