Cheapest would be in your garage.
Not that hard and can be done by a novice in less than a twelve pack.
You'll need to pick up some items to do this though.
1. Marine grade carpet, your choice of color.
2. Marine grade adhesive.
3. Big Magic Marker.
4. Measuring tape.
5. Razor blades or carpet knife.
6. Digital Camera.
7. 12 pack of good beer.
Take ya less than a day to do it. Maybe 4-6 hours depending on consumption rate of beer.
Cost?
Maybe 70.00????
pm for step by step if interested.

Carpet alone is over 100.00,I just bought 6x7' today for 75.00, the adhesive is 17.00 for a gallon of outdoor stuff from home depot.. trowel, razors, labor... time.. NOT cheap.. worth doing, yes//

I bought 6'x6' special marine carpet for $8 at kragens?
Just go get some carpet from Home Depot. The gray color is what I used. Dont remember the exact price but it was reasonable. Re carpeting and replacing the plywood is actually a bigger job than one might think!:cool:

This is after the carpeting and major work was done.

Hey Johnsfishing,
Not Marine grade carpet?
Job looks nice.
But it's not Marine Grade?
