I used thes guys for my replacement BMB. I had to send a paper template but for the Bayliners I am sure they will already have a pattern.
Their carpet is ther real deal and you wouldn't need to replace it again. I was very pleased with price and service! 
They're called 'Snapin Carpets' Here
Don't ask them to fit the poppers though as they will never be exactly right. Just get them to send some poppers with the carpet to add when you get it.
You will need their poppers though because the centre pin is longer to go through the thickness of the waterproof backing.

Starting to get worried... I rubbed my eyes this morning and saw nothing but Bloo dots. Does this mean something?

thanks all. tiko Ill try that number tomoro.
Rodgerrat that looks like a good site but are they not in america.
Kawasaki I looked at the Flotex website is it not a bit kitchen looking. fine for inside a boat but not open topped I dont think have sat countless samples inside thay all look terrible. They just look like house carpet. I must admit I am a bit of a restoration freak. I dont like changing anything in what I restore, I try and make it look like the original when built, even houses. anyone else got an upholstry business that has seen this kind of material. its like an 8-10mm thick bit of Fuzzy Felt (remember that kids) but not just as smooth more of a nylon webb/felt.

Hi ian, yes the plain medium grey coloured. But the girl at marine called me back(very gratefull) and gave me a number for rainbow carpets in poole but the number isnt working, maybe I took it down wrong! but she did say she hadnt anything near like what I was looking for- but hey if you can ask if you think someone there nows better i'd be most gratefull. I think 3 x 2 meters would cover it in one piece but I dont mind joining if I can only get strips a meter wide or anything slightly similar. cheers

I think I found the original kind of carpet here if anyones tried it let me know. its man made, nylon, clear gel backing agent, suitable for sidewall trimming in cars etc sounds like it.
Ill let you know i will try get a sample - just think if its reasonably priced we could all have new looking bayliners by summer !!!!
