Don't think you can beat 3M, just make sure it's in the right place when you put it down because it ain't going nowhere!..

I re-carpeted my last boat. I used Henry's indoor/outdoor carpet glue from the Home Depot. It worked really good. I think the trick is to let it dry a little bit and get tacky before you lay the carpet. To remove the old glue I used MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) came right off. The fumes from the glue are pretty strong, so just keep some fresh air flowing.

That MEK is some pretty good stuff!.
