Bass Pro Shops has bunks in their catalogue.
I rebuilt mine a couple of years ago also, the bunks on my hydro hoist.
home Depo for the wood & carpet. get treated 2x4's correct length if you can. If not cut them & spray water proofing on the cut ends. Out door carpet will work finie, but they also have carpet carpet that is submersable. Then use gavalnized rtacks / nails that are used for roofing shingles. Also used submersable wood glue.
about $ 60.00 total.
When you apply the carpet to the glue roll it out good, that way the glue gets into the carpet fibers.

I had my trex deck replaced under warranty 4 months ago due to it rotting. Company said I originally had a bad batch.
