Comments about Deluxe Marine Bunk Carpet:
replaced the bunk covers on my trailer for my bass boat. The carpet looks good and was easy to handle.
Pros
- Convenient sizes
Cons
- Lack of color choices
- Not worth the money
Best Uses
- Trailer bunks
Comments about Deluxe Marine Bunk Carpet:
The precut rolls are convenient. The 18"x18' size covered doubled up, pressure treated, 2x6's; providing full overlapping coverage. Bunks are 10' long, so I had to order two rolls. I'm not yet convinced this product is superior to any standard, high-density indoor/outdoor carpet. At the end of the day, the trailer is a means to an end, and this product cost more than I really wanted to spend on something that will wear out in a season or two. However, it was nice not to have to trim the material lengthwise.
Service and delivery comments:
Arrived in a timely manner. Delivery box was crushed, but it only contained the carpet rolls so there was no harm done.
Pros
- Easily installed on 2x4
Cons
Best Uses
- Pontoon trailer bunks
Comments about Deluxe Marine Bunk Carpet:
I bought this size since the bunk was 2x4x14. The only 2x4 was 12ft, so I had a lot of waste.
Service and delivery comments:
Arrived in good time and great condition.
Pros
- Good quality
Cons
Best Uses
Comments about Deluxe Marine Bunk Carpet:
Product quality was as advertised. The dimensions were accurate in width and a few inches longer than advertised. I installed the carpet on new presure treated 2 x 6 x 10's with a manual staple gun. Precut carpet makes the job easy. I wanted blue but it was not availble - grey carpet looks fine on a black trailer. This product looks like it will last many seasons.
Service and delivery comments:
The product came right on schedule while my boat was off the trailer. Packaging was secure. Another example of excellent customer service from West Marine.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Deluxe Marine Bunk Carpet:
I just picked up some of the carpet to put on my trailer. After 5 long hard years of use my old carpet just gave up the ghost. I used the "same" CE Smith carpet last time, but this stuff is much more supple. I had trouble last time with the "old" carpet being too stiff and harder to install. It looks like they just got rid of the double loop weave, which made it easier to install AND makes it a bit slicker (I think).
Pros
- Better than standard equipment
- Boat loads easier now
- Durable, corrosion resistant
- Safe and secure
Cons
Best Uses
- Long distance towing

Comments about Deluxe Marine Bunk Carpet:
This is not the same as the old C. E. Smith bunk carpet that West Marine sold a few years ago. This is just the same old poly-fuzz junk like [...] sells. Will probably rot off in a year or two of Florida heat. Definitely not worth the high price.
