So I've searched quite a bit and seems most have a definitive opinion about marine vrs outdoor carpet.

I've decided to go with grey marine carpet but am not sure where to get it from. Anyone have any first hand experience with the stuff from Cabelas, BPS, or West Marine?

Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Cabelas' stuff worked well for me, but it is pricier than say the Lowes outdoor carpet. I am glad I used it on the front casting deck, it's better on the feet, but I would use the Lowes outdoor again for a new build to apply the resources somewhere else if it was a concern. The Lowes stuff lacks the backing (at least the stuff I bought since they didn't have the marine grade in NNJ locations), but looks fine, IMO.

I would recommend the carpet - not sure how it cleans yet as I don't really get too much dirt in it and it's always covered.
 
I used the homedepot outdoor carpet in my 12 footer laster and it held up good I am using it on my new project
 
i got my carpet from Lowes and it was really cheap and it is bass boat carpet...i got 6'x25' for right at $100..It has held up great so far and i havent had a problem withit...not to mention feels nice
 
I ordered from here - https://www.boatcarpetcentral.com/home

Free 2 day shipping is what sold me. Ordered 25 feet of 20 oz for $189 - just don't get black #-o

It shows EVERY piece of dirt and gets hotter than a son-of-a-gun.

Do you have a link to your build? I can't seem to find it? Thanks!!
 
Here's a link to my build, but I've been busy with cutting, gluing and stapling carpeting down. I haven't taken any pictures recently because it really doesn't look much different, just getting covered with carpeting now.
