	the water is coming from the bow carpet ,since my stern is lower than bow the water runs under the cabin and saturates stern carpet as I suspected,i am in the process of lowering the bow 1.5 inches since the 3 rd toon I added was too low,

	We haven't had that problem but I would recommend changing the carpet to a plastic/foam material. It is what we use when we refurbished our pontoon. It can't mold it is not slippery but it does get pretty hot if in direct sunlight but a quick spash of water will cool it down fast. And it has a little bit of padding too. 100/10 would absolutely recommend
