    What do you mean here? Only put new carpet on the surface of the bunk where the boat sits? Not sides?
    That won't really work well, since you'd have to staple the carpet down to the surface where the boat will be sliding. You'd run risk of a) snagging raw edges of carpet with boat, fraying or ripping the carpet off; b) grinding the hull onto exposed staples.
    Carpet needs to be wrapped around sides and secured.
