New Rubrail questions

fast02ranger · 04-18-2007, 09:03 AM

I've seen pics of a lot of boats in here with new rub rail...where did you get? What style do I need? How many feet roughly? Any tips for installing? The boat is gutted (except engines and gauges) and all screw holes and scratches getting filled tonight, sanding next. I've got pop up cleats going in, new carpet, new upholstery, and the last major thing i need is rubrail...any help would be awesome!

I had my Stinger 260 redone last winter. The guys that worked on mine said that the black Crownline rubrail material they had fit perfectly on Stingers. Maybe you could check with a local CL dealer for a sample? Mine looks great.

We purchased our rubrail through a local marine dealer in town. For our 312 it was under $300.

We had 6 people help put the rubrail on. For the most part, 4 helped at all times in order to keep it straight. It went on perfectly. Took us about 4 to 5 hours.

Take your time....have some help and measure correctly!

Rubrails.com I believe is a site that some refer to.
