Two years ago I used a combination of Liquis Nails (water resistent) and SS nails. Holdin up great so far.

I just used a Heavy duty Staple Gun and stapled the carpet to my boards. Went to the lake, put my boat in the water. Pulled the trailer out and took old boards off trailer. Put new boards up against Bunk Board Brackets and marked Holes. Drilled out new holes for Bolts, Bolted new boards on Brackets and was done. Whole process took about 30 minutes from start to finish. Got new boards on Trailer and saved a lot of money by doing it myself.

I would suggest buying quality marine/outdoor carpet. It is going to last a heck of a lot longer than cheep stuff. I also used marine quality glue and stainless steel staples along with presure treated 2X4's.

You need to get the carpet as tight as possible... if the carpet is loose itwill start to roll over and then tear.

I put new ones on this past fall and it really is not that hard.
