I just bought my 1994 22C a month ago. I do like the natural flooring but it is louder, hotter and tougher on your feet than carpet. You feel/hear the engine much more than carpeting or due to design with no full cabin it is going to sound the same? I live down the road from Donzi and have considered a new one from them but not sure I want to pony up $480 right now. I called a member here who makes them and he was the same price with shipping. I am going to post a WTB for a used one but how many people sell their carpets? What other options have people done here? Was it a big deal to make your own or after cost, why bother, etc. How does red hold up, does it turn pink or orange in a year? I see most red boats have gray carpets which looks fine to me, black would be too hot in FL and off white...had that in my Baja...no way.
