Boat Carpet
 
Last winter I replaced the cockpit carpeting in my 2002 SeaRay 260. After some research and not finding a local option I went with a company called SnapIn Carpet out of MI. They have the original templates and the carpet fit perfectly (I had to install the snaps which they provided.). Now my cabin carpet is beginning to show its age, which is a bigger challenge. This carpet is glued down, and in some places also runs vertically (below the door to the head and in the galley area). Is there anyone locally who can do work like this and comes recommended?

I would think any rug person could do it if you got the material (I'm assuming marine grade). And, in this area, I wouldn't doubt if carpet companies have access to what you'd need.

Sea Ray carpet
 
Some years aoi I needed carpet replaced in the salon and galley. (35' Sea Ray Sedan Bridge) One local company I called didn't want to even look at it because "boat owners are too fussy." In today's world, I'd ask if they have done boats before.
Cutting and fitting in the galley was going to be a difficult operation at best due to fitting around the dinette, bulkheads, etc. and only the floor surface needed replacement. I replaced the carpet with parquet teak flooring (Cabinet maker/craftsman, not a carpet or flooring guy.) Looked much better and easier to clean spills. Just regular carpet in the salon, glued in place. The only fitting was around the engine hatches, as the carpet was rolled over the edges instead of covering the hatch seems with metal strips. Regular carpet, regular flooring guy. Good results.
