I'm about to purchase (95% sure) a 1995 SeaRay 175 bowrider that needs the carpet replaced. It has carpet on the floor and up on the sides (where there is open storage).<br /><br />How is best to go about it? The only thing I could find in a search was to use Acetone to soak the carpet and then begin scraping it off. Is that basically the idea? Are SeaRay boats any different (glues, etc.) that any other brand?<br /><br />I only need to replace the carpet on the floor as it is worn through. But I'd like to consider changing the color to one of the other standard SeaRay options. This would mean replacing the carpet on the sides. I'm betting this could be a real bear, eh?<br /><br />Like to hear from people who've done it before and what I'm looking to get myself into. I've never feared restoration projects and elbow grease, but I also don't want to spend the whole summer replacing the carpet and not enjoying the boat.
