Checkmate Service
Ordered new carpet from Checkmate over a month ago and still getting the run around. I am really impressed with the build quality and ride of our 259 Convincor but customer service is important. Is this a one time blunder or have others struggled with Checkmate's service?

That seems to be a common problem at this time of year - marine vendors are so backed-up they can't get to the customers like Checkmate, especially for smaller orders. I'm sure if Mike had it in stock, you'd have it by now - he's always filled my orders within a day or so.

I ordered carpet a week ago and it is here now. Funny, Mike asked the color and said the red is out of stock luckily the blue was what I needed.

Re: Checkmate Service
Dave, are you ripping out old carpet on the floor of the cockpit? I'm wondering how hard that is, since mine has some nasty oil atains from a small accident.

Re: Checkmate Service
Lucky you - didn't know they made 'em with snap-in carpet. I learned something else earlier today, and that's that there is a drain catch in the bow under the pop-up navigation light - it collects water into a tube that is all coiled up with a stopper in the end - keeps the water from entering the bow area. You might have seen it already in yours cause its closed bow, but mine was squirreled away where I'd never see it, only did bec. I was installing some bezels on the hardware up there.
