Carpet upgrade on new z19?

[KC_Bass_Fanatic]

Is this even an option? the website doesn't list it as an option but I've heard it's possible. The z21 Elite supposedly has a higher weight carpet. If anyone knows for sure if it's possible, or better yet if anyone has upgraded the carpet when they ordered I'd love to hear back. Looking to buy in the next 48 hours!!!

Mine has the padded front deck option which honestly isn't all that padded. When I bought last year there was no such thing as a carpet upgrade. So far mine seems to be doing fine.

Ask your dealer. Get the best carpet they offer. The carpet in my 2016 Z21 is toast even though the boat has been covered when not in use.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.... Not sure why we're still putting Carpet in bass boats. Sea Dek is far more superior, no stains, easy cleaning, etc. etc. etc.

That's not good. I just sold a 1995 Champion that had the original carpet and it looked almost new.

Nitro admitted to me they had a run of bad carpet, but I am the second owner and the original warranty only covers carpet two years and for the original owner only. Pretty convenient for Nitro.

From my experince is doesnt last any longer than carpet.

In the Bast Blaster today, it showed a photo of a Falcon with that option that will be at the Classic.

Thanks. I'll be sure to check that out.

Did not have that option when I purchased my Z19 last summer. I also went with the padded front deck and can't tell it's there just by standing on it...and it doesn't even cover that much standing area.

Thanks ya'll. Ordered my Z19 on Tuesday and there was not an option to upgrade the carpet. I was informed that the weight used is 16oz, which is middle of the road in my experience. It wasn't a deal breaker for me but I wish it was 20-24oz carpet.

Congrats and can’t wait to see pics of your new rig!
