Car Wash/Power Washer

[cmod777debian]

I have a Bass Tracker II. It has carpet in it. Is it ok to clean the inside out with pressure washer or is it possible to ruin the carpet in it with the washer??

Just curious. I got to get it ready for the ladies this weekend.

Maybe power wash it then use a shop vac to suck up the extra water, I just use a garden hose and dish washing liquid on mine and it comes out pretty nice.

Unless the carpet is really stained I would avoid using a pressure washer. Carpet is simply not designed to withstand that kind of abuse. Dishwashing detergent, warm water and good stiff brush is a all that's needed. Rinse thoroughly and store the boat in the sun, bow high so all water drains and the sun can dry the interior.

It's very possible to screw up a lot of stuff with a pressure washer. I have one and love it for certain jobs, but resist the temptation to use it on a car, boat, trailer, etc. It can force water into places that water ain't supposed to be, like in bearing seals. Good Luck!
