I need to replace the rotted floor on my 16' alum boat.<br />The original plywood floor had the carpet glued on it & wrapped around the edges, then the whole thing was screwed to the alum. stringers.<br />Would it be better to do it like it was originally done or put the floor down first then glue down carpet?<br />If the plywd. goes down first, I could seal the tops of screws to keep out the water.<br />This might not be that much of an issue since I now keep the boat covered. <br />If the carpet isn't wrapped around the edges, does it tend to come up or fray?<br />Just wondering how other people have done it.
