Need your opinions! Just ordered a new Boat. I really like carpet. My last 3 boats were carpet. Have never had Vinyl. I am considering getting the snap In carpet option. would like your Input both ways.. Thanks

Vinyl gets slippery when wet but easer to clean

When fishing below freezing I'll take the carpet.

I have a Lund Alaskan, with all vinyl floors. I have it pretty well covered with anti-fatigue mats, which makes it no slip, and comfortable. Very easy to clean. Highly recommend it.

I have carpet in my boat and if and when I have the chance again I will choose the vinyl. I am pretty anal about things and after a week in Canada catching a bunch of fish the carpet can get pretty messy. I would love it if I could just scrub the vinyl and have it looking like new.

A buddy just completely redid the interior of his carpeted boat in vinyl. It is VERY slippery. I cannot imagine what it would be like when cold.
Aside from that its hotter than carper too. Blazing hot sun and its far worse. Vinyl with snap in carpet, now that is best of both worlds. I just take a shop vac and pressure washer to my boat after the Canada trips. Leave it sit out in the blazing sun, then vacuum again once dry and it looks like the day I bought the boat.
