Here's some emails and pictures we've recently received.
Here's a few shots on a project by James, his
slide show can be seen at the link
Rick –
Just some
pics for ya since it’s all DONE. Took a couple weeks, but the frickin
project from hell is done and I hope I never have to re-carpet another boat.
My hands are thrashed, but labor of love.
Time to
enjoy it now... at least until I blow up the motor or something. Maybe I'll
run out of money for ga$ before that happens.
Thanks for
all your help/advice!

Hiya,
Just wanted to drop you off a few photos of
the new carpet I just put in 1988 Cajun Nordic. The job was not as difficult
as I had expected. I did the whole job in a bout a day and a half. The
medium gray that you suggested I think is actually better looking than the
charcoal that I originally wanted. In the near future, I want to build a
deck extension. Do you sell smaller quantities than the 6’ x 25’ rolls?
Thanks
Bill Vining
PS…..the manual was a hoot

This email is from Mike in Virginia,
Attached are some pics of the new carpet I installed on my 2000 TR-21.
Completed the job by myself over Thanksgiving weekend and I am very very
happy with it. Yes, I did get one lid backwards and I did cut my finger
once, not bad for a rookie and yes I would do it again. The pre cut carpet
with location markings made the install easy, all it took was some time.
I'm ready to fish. Thanks again.
PS: My
wife has a 2007 TR-21X (She fishes the WBT) and now she wants me to replace
her carpet. She'll have to wait on that.
The Before Shot
The After Shots
Now, I want you to look close and
notice: 1. that the spouses boat does not
seem to show up in the TOY BOX that Mike is obviously working on 2.
The wall that is more completed and organized is the wall with the fishing
stuff. 3. Mike is hiding a car under that cover. For us car nuts that's a
no-no. Maybe he's hiding it from the spouse? 4. The HotShot Lures decal
on the windshield
 (Might
as well give them a plug here!) 5. The awesome, professional looking
carpet job that Mike did! Bet this toybox completion will be on the back burner
when spouse and friends insist upon carpet jobs for their boats!
I emailed Mike to let him know I had posted his
pics and he sent me a picture of his wife's boat---eat your heart guys! There
are FISHERWOMEN!
When the motor gets installed on this beauty, Mike may have to move that car
(1990 Corvette) out of the toy box and let the Gecko in! Bet Mike's wife is
beautiful, is a gourmet cook and comes from a very wealthy family! But if not,
who cares! With a boat like that she's a keeper!
Rick,
Thanks for the help and Bubba's instruction
manual. Attached is a photo of my finished product.
I must admit that I didn't follow the
directions exactly; especially the part about when I could pop the first
brewski cap.
I will recommend you guys to my friends
(both of them).
Regards,
Dick Scheide
 
Hey Dick, looks like that brewski didn't
matter! GREAT JOB!
My name is Ben Engleking and I just wanted to thank you and
send some
pictures of my 86 Cajun Carpet job. Your instruction manual was great. It
allowed me to do something I have never done and actually thought I couldn't
do. I would have been happy to pay for the results that I achieved myself.
I found some soft spots I didn't know was there and fiber glassed that in
and it all turned out great. Almost made the old gal look new again. Thanks
again for the service and helpful manual.
Ben
Wow! Look at these pics, Ben did a really great job! Notice
that screwdriver in the one pic? That means, unlike Bubba, Ben read our
instruction manual!
 
 
Thanks for the great product, the manual
and the carpet was top of the line. My 93 Stratos now looks like a 07, from
above that is, thanks again.

So, what do you think? Didn't Brad so an
awesome job!! Kudos Brad, I'm impressed. Gotta wonder how many of your buddies
will be asking for your help!
Steve Fish's Cobra. Wow! This
was a total restoration and all the pictures Steve sent shows how a Bass Boat
should be rebuilt. NICE JOB STEVE! You know, Fiberglass never rots so a boat
should last a long, long time! A restoration every 5 to 7 years and you have a
new boat! At our shop we even replace the old wood with a composite material so
the restoration is "forever", well, in theory anyway. We even replace transoms
with composites so that we don't ever have to replace rotten transoms.
 
  
Here's a recent job by Casey and his
son! Bet the boy helped a lot!
  
Here's a great carpet job by Mike Boeke. Bet
all his fishin buddies will be a tryin to get's him to come over and do
thier'ens boat.

Rear Deck After
Look at this great detail work!
Mike did an outstanding job with this boat and
YOU can to! I'll bet Mike wasn't 100% happy with some of the cuts and detail but
this overall job is awesome. Here's Mike's comments:

Mike Boeke
