I'm looking to replace the complete rub rail on my 268 Islander 1997. Going to a white or slightly off-white with a color insert. Anyone know of a source? I want something with the same profile as OEM.

Thanks. I have a email out to GW customer service too.

In the spring I'm pulling the deck rail and the rub rail. The gunnel's have cracked gelcoat. I'm going to refinish down to the diamond non-skid. Install new rub rail. Put the deck rail back on. The present one is all beat up and the wrong color.

It may be time to strip the bottom and go to a vivid white or a Hydrocoat white. 15 year old bottom.

No science project for me! I want the same profile. I'll take a look. Thanks.

I'll be in Miami for the boat show. I have a bunch of shopping to do.
