Hello!  New boat owners and new to the site.  My wife and I decided to get our first boat and we found an incredible deal and jumped in!

We decided on a 2002 Rinker Captiva 192 with a 4.3l mercruiser.  The boat is in great shape for its age and I'm slowly upgrading and restoring.  We have been replacing the Decals and parts showing their age.

    Looks good! Where did you get the replacement? I may need to do that to mine this year.

    The decal replacement was off of Ebay.  It came from Saipan but was excellent quality just took a couple of weeks for shipment...  I'll see if I can find the seller.  It came with 2 main logos and an assortment of smaller sized logos if you want to add anywhere.

    I am working on installing floor coverings now.  It had snap in carpet (not sold with the unit) so I'm working on removing the snaps and filling in the holes.  I bought this blacktip traction mat material (suggestion from another user on this site) and this is the test fit to see if I want to do the entire floor.

    We lost everything above 3k rpms last weekend on the lake so it was time for an upgrade.

    Went from a 14x20 stainless steel 3 blade to a 14x19 aluminum 4 blade with a new hub kit

    Looking at doing something similar to my carpet.  Do you like the Blacktip traction material so far?  How much time did it take you to do it?  What did you end of replacing the snaps with? Thanks for any info...
