The CE Smith Deluxe Marine-Grade Carpeting for Bunk Boards # CE11350 will work well for your two bunk boards. The carpet will be able to completely cover your 2x4 boards and is 12' long. This means you will have a little extra since you will need 2 rolls for your 9' boards. We also have charcoal # CE11372 and black # CE11330 available if you want a different color.

I have attached a review video where you can see the bunk carpet installation for your reference.

Yes, you can use stainless steel (heavy-duty) staples to attach boat trailer bunk board carpet like CE Smith #CE11372 to pressure treated wood. You can also use hot-dipped galvanized staples. Either type is fine for use with treated lumber.
