    What weight carpet?

    Looking at re-carpeting a 1997 202zx. Should I go with 16 or 20 oz? Suggestions

    I wouldn’t go less than 20 oz. Just had a customer wanted me to install 16 oz in his ski boat. It was not even close to the 20 oz.

    One thing to consider.......I replaced carpets in my previous boat with 20 oz, was soft, but took much longer to dry out after a rain. Had trouble getting dry when back in garage and running fan across.

    I guess my 09 which has a padded deck is 20 oz and it dries very quickly in the sun after I take a pressure washer to it.

    Neither. Go the the Bass Cat Boat store. Order their carpet.

    It's a premium 24 oz. carpet that's better than anything out there.

    I just did my ZX200 and another boat.

    Did not pad the front deck. Should have, but I can live without.
