[QUOTE="YamahaC40Guy, post: 94053, member: 953"] Marine ply and the HDPP are both pricey (at least they are around here)~I used the ply where I wanted to use marine-grade carpet, and the plastic everywhere else. I used an exterior grade adhesive, and pneumatic staple guns to secure it. Stapes were kept where toes would never connect~the underside and inside edges. I also found that, to do the carpet neatly, you couldn't just slap it down, and wonder (after) what would happen when you hit a corner or radius. I used scraps to test first, cut from that where necessary to get a good result, then trace/cut that onto the actual pc. of carpet. A bit tedius, but no surprises. Rob [/QUOTE]
