Ok the question from Mhall about laying it on top. Heres the trouble with that.
1 it wouldn`t stay in 1 place for long. Like in house`s I`ve done if you lay a peice of pad or carpet on top the other it will want to walk on you..move around.
2 I don`t even want to think of having the fish of a live time,,,(elwoods 12lb smallie) be all excited and trip over the pad, fall down or worse in the lake with the fish...LOL it would get in the way.
3 it weights very little.
4 the thing about the market for it. Well people that need it can`t afford lest I can`t to get a new boat for the pad. It can be installed pretty cheap. Plus you would have new carpet to boot. But I`d like to she how it work so I can give that oppion to my customers to have done when I install new carpet in the boats

It was just a brain storm or brain fart but like to try it.
