Just purchased a 2012 296 bowrider with twin volvos, low hours. Traded our 2009 cobalt 272, it was mint.
We are looking to replace the carpet mats in the 296 with new sea grass mats, snap in.
Any suggestions on where, best options?

So glad you found us Robey.
Taylormade products had templates of Cobalts at one time. Not sure if they still do but we used them to order an Admiral Blue Carpet for our 262 back in the day. It turned out amazing.
Maybe give
Taylormade a shout and they can point you in the right direction. Keep us posted.
And welcome aboard mate.

If you still have your old carpets and they're not too beat up or stretched out, many places can make new floor coverings from your existing pieces as templates. Absent that, some places will be happy to walk you through making paper templates to send.
Some places will make the mats, but recommend you install the snaps yourself if they don't have access to your boat as snap positions may vary slightly - see examples at

Some premium marine woven mat manufacturers include dealer locator tools, like Infinity, which may also help you locate someone local to where you are -

Excellent suggestion, thank you. I found a local pro who is making new vinyl mats from the templates.
