Whats the best and most durable to use. We are going to re-carpet the trailer.

I have, in the past, purchased rolls from our local Merc dealer. Not sure what it is or the weight. But it is rubber backed. Unfortunately, it doesn't last very long. I saw some at a West Marine store recently that was not rubber backed, and seemed thicker than what I have been using. Just wondering if it is better?? Not trying to hijack, but feel the answer might be relevant to your question.

I believe this is the product I saw at West Marine.

My bunks are too long for the West Marine packaged carpet. So, I went to a home depot, and bought the needed lengths of their commercial runner. It comes on a bulk 100' roll, is two feet wide, and you just cut the amount you need. It was available in a dark gray that looks pretty good on my black trailer. It has held up wonderfully, and is what I'll do again when it's time.

Since you live in a boating area I would suggest checking your local Lowes. The last bunk project I had I used the black marine carpeting that they sell and it held up very well. It can also be cut to length and if I remember correctly it was slightly cheaper than going with the carpeting from the catalogs.

I used lowes carpet. But before I stapled it all together I used a bench sander and rounded off the corners where it normally tears. So far so good.
