I guess I would tell you to look for a reputable upholstery shop in your area. Crestliner boats are labor intensive carpet projects. You will have upwards of 10 hours just in the tear-down. Basically the entire interior will need to come out, including the consoles. Unless you are familiar with steering systems, electrical and motor controls, it's best to leave it to the professionals. If you want to go for it, take pictures along the way, mark all the individual pieces with a chalk arrow pointing towards the bow. To do the hull carpet really the only way to do it right is to spray the glue, in which case you'll need to purchase a spray gun. Added expense there. A good upholstery shop should charge between 2500 and 3500, maybe more depending if there is any wood to replace. If you want any specific advice PM me, I'd be happy to help any way I can. Good luck!
