Thanks, that means a lot!

That is a great idea, I wish you would have told me that 2 weeks ago.....

Thanks for watching!

Thank for watching, just try to show people that anyone can do this work if they want too.

Trying to do my best.

Where? Give me his number…

@ that’s exactly how I am after fixing my stuff.. it looks good for sure!

Thanks!

Thanks for checking it out!

@@michaelsticka7839 Right, I just had a tournament this past weekend in the rain. So, the carpet is not a virgin anymore.

@@casiokids91 man I hope so, because I don’t want to do this again.

It is a lot of work for one man but it's going to save you so much money and the satisfaction you will get after you are finish is greater than the time spend doing the carpet.

Just bring your check book with you and a good pen.

@ KMSL

Thanks man, I have an older Canon Vixia HF G20 and I just start using the Rode wireless Go 2 mic but before this project I just used the camera's mic and it was good enough.

Thanks

Yes, and I got my mess up out the way.

That sounds expensive and it will not match the carpet I had to buy twice.

@@Lmt1949 Yes, I am. I already have several videos out of me working on the carpet, so make sure you look on my channel for my other boat videos.

@@KarateSensei71 Yes it is a stupid design. You almost have to take the tank off to done it easier. If you have smaller hands it maybe a little easier.

@@thebasshunter LOL, I am 6'-3" and 240lbs my hands are big and I get angry easy over stupid deign stuff like this. Thanks for the tip, when I do this I might as well remove tank! You made a very hard job look pretty easy.

Yes I was but I can’t blame nobody but me. That’s life……

You know that is the plan. Somebody has to paid for all these upgrades.

I on the grid try to get it done for you guy's and me. Thanks for checking in.

I'm thinking about...

I'm trying to make this boat new again, That is my goal!

@ your almost there bru keep at it, hopefully I’ll see it or you at Eufaula

@@fshn4dlrs417 thanks for the great advice.

That is funny, I have only lose one hub in 15 years. With those single axles trailer you have to watch them hubs.

@ yes back then ranger wanted 8k for a trailer. They sent me new axles and hubs without question but I had to throw in the towel on the rig as back then I couldn’t justify a new trailer..Now it would be cheap! Then I traded for skeeters and then a Phoenix with tandems. I now have a 18’ aluminum boat and it’s on a tandem axle! Bit overkill but learned my lesson.

@@robertmason4110 No, I did not make it hunting again this year.

It make the lids a little stiffer. I think it would much better if I would have used thicker fiberglass. The thicker the fiberglass the stiffer it will be. The guy at @fishbumptv just did a video about that a few days ago. But the lids are better but it has some flexing but you don’t feel like you are going to fell through them.

@@jackwhaley8508 I think I got my pad from eBay but you can go it from Amazon, or just do an internet search. And with the pad I went with 3/8 and now after fishing on the 3/8 pad this pass weekend. I would go with a thinner pad maybe the 1/4. The pad feels good if you are sitting or kneeling on the floor but standing, you will have to get use to it. Walking on pad 100% of the time while fishing. Just something to think about.

If your pockets are $ long, you might get me???? Carpet is not easy!

I don’t think that will work because the strength would on top supporting the weight if on the bottom it would be catching the weight. After doing mine I would go with thicker fiber glass mat to have more strength. My lids are much better but it still has some flexing but it’s 75% better.

@ ok thanks, I really just need my rod locker lid done. I’ll do it this summer when I replace carpet

Man I’m working everyday on it try to get her done. The carpet is done, just painting small parts and working with the seats. It’s coming along better good.

You have to act like you know what you are doing.

It worked ok but I wished I would have used thicker fiber glass mat. The lids are a lot stronger than before but it has a small amount of flexing but much better than it was.

Thanks, I'm almost done.

So, far everything is working out petty good. Almost done with the carpet and the seat should be done by the end of the week.

Right, I had rollers but just did not use them. Did you use contact glue?

I thought I seen directanal arrows on the inside..thought you might of put them there for the carpet layout

I’m working on it, the cold weather is not helping. But will let you know when she is done.

Sometime you just have to do things just to see if you can do them. I wanted to see if you can just re-fiberglass the lids to see if that works.

Good , man stick around a minute and see if you like what you see. Thank for watching.

Yes, you can call Ranger and order new seat cover. They are expensive but you can order them. Mine cost about $850 and most Ranger lids become soft over time. Most other boat companies make there lids out of aluminum.
