27 ft Sport Deck
 

Question for the experts!!! While buffing out the original gel coat on the deck of my 27 ft Sport I notice that on each side the presance of 3 hole mounting points that have been filled in. being as my Dad was the original owner and all pictures of this boat show no railing of any type, my question is did the mold carry a pattern in it to indicate where one should drill out the deck mounting bolts for a hand rail. The holes do not go through the deck. The gel coat repair seems to be original as it matches in color to the deck spot on. What type of rail would have been there ?? There are 6 mounting points on each side with the aft ones having 2 bolt pattern and the remaining 5 a 3 bolt patern in a tri-angle shape. I would like to put a low rail on it if it is accurate to the option avalible then. Thanks for the help.

Post a pic of the area in question.

Rails on sports
 

I know Jeff has pictures of Sports with rails. I potentially have a sent of rails if I can get them back to Il.According to a pricing sheet from Magnum it was an option on the Sport. Bud

Sport Bow Rails
 

Get ahold of me before you leave Florida. If the rails belong to a magnum then I would like to get them. Have any pictures? Thanks

None of the sports I have seen had any indication for a place to drill for bow rails. They may have been removed & just a good gel repair. Here is a pic of a Mag with bow rails.

Have you seen a magnum with both the center cable assembly and the bow rails? What ever happened it is certain that the gel coat repairs were done at Magnum before my Dad took delivery of the boat. Thanks

In this old Donzi factory pic you can see workers doing gel repair out of the molds. You Mag may have been built for stock with the rails then removed & repaired before delivery?????

I can see why mine had so much unintended hook in it! Those stands are horrible.
