| My 1985 ski nautique has a red/black specked carpet that I can’t seem to find anywhere. I’ve received many samples from different suppliers and none have matched the original carpet. Any suggestions?? |

Kailey, Are you looking for the turf style carpet? IE: "Astroturf" in red and black. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

| Likely not for 85, no... speckled but not grass. |

| Correct. It’s not a fluffy carpet by any means but it does not look like aquaturf. I will try to figure out how to post a picture of the color and texture of the carpet. |

[QUOTE=8122pbrainard] Definitely the red/black but it has faded due to sun exposure over the years. |

Kailey, The Aquaturf is not what CC used way back. The Aquaturf nap is round unlike the flat (like blades of grass) like the Astroturf type.

If I could figure out how to post a dang picture in here, I’d be able to show you that it’s indeed carpet and not AstroTurf. Is that all they used in 85? |

Here's a recent thread from the forum "new" section: How to post pictures https://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=49031&FID=6&PR=3&title=adding-images-to-your-posts" rel="nofollow - https://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=49031&FID=6&PR=3&title=adding-images-to-your-posts

Kailey I just don't know what's wrong with Pete these days. He could have at least offered to have you e mail him some pictures of your carpet and then he could post them in this thread. So ..........let me graciously make the offer on Pete's behalf.  Click on his profile and you can send him an e mail thru the site with your photos attached. Or you can click on my profile and send them to me and I'll post them here. If you're trying to put pictures here on CCF from let's say, a phone, "it ain't easy"

Yes, I’m on here through my phone. It doesn’t give me an option to attach pictures through email either. Might have to hop on my laptop to do so. |

Woo finally! Here she is. Original carpet as you can tell... lots of wear and tear from traffic.

Kailey, Definitely carpet and not the turf type. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

| Do you have any suggestions or know of someone who purchased new carpet to replace this? Just can’t find anything to match. |

Kailey Be patient as it's the weekend so many are out enjoying the water. There's a good chance someone will know more about the carpet than I do. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |
