Sorry about the on-topic post, but I notice West Marine sells an 11 inch

12 foot piece of marine bunk carpet for $24.00. I haven't checked Home


Depot

yet, but I suspect I could buy a piece of indoor/outdoor carpet that


size at

Home Depot for under ten bucks. What's the diff?


Doug, I've recarpeted trailer bunks many times (different boats, not the
same boat over & over).

There is a low nap nylon carpet which is good for boat trailers, but I
don't know if that's what West Marine is selling. However, I do know
that almost any carpet found in scraps & remnants will do just fine for
a long time.

Even if I don't vote Republican in November?


I also have used carpet scarps for my bunks for many years. In addition
to the sources mentioned by Doug, you may also watch the around new
houses. This may have worked for me because have voted Republican for
decades.
