Source for aft compartment rug?

With all the thorny projects I'm working on, would be nice to find an exact-fit replacement for the little rug with snaps in the aft compartment! Am I dreaming?

Wingman,

I've got a Mk1 so I'm not familiar with the arrangement on the Mk2, but I've just replaced the rugs in the main salon. I went to a flooring store and found a remnant that I liked, a nice plush pile. Next I cut to fit the carpet, two pieces, one for the main salon, one small one for the galley. Then I had the borders bound at an upholstery shop. For about $150 a got custom fit carpeting for my interior.

Since you're just doing a smaller rug it would be quite a bit cheaper. You can install the snaps yourself, just get a snap kit from any marine supplier, I know West Marine carries them.

Wing : Most of us have done exactly what Kevin recommends.  Works great and you have a broad selection of material and colors!!

A thought
