Default Cost to replace rubrail @ LOTO?

Has anyone had a rubrail replaced at LOTO? I was wondering what the cost was (per foot w/ rail) to do the work. Simple plastic rail- no SS. Thanks.

Default rubrail

I had my rubrail replaced last year on my f357sr1 formula. price of rubrail from formula was $600 bucks.
removed old rail epoxyed all of the old screw holes,
tightened all the screws that hold the top deck an hull
together, installed new rail, drilled all new holes cost
$400 bucks total $1000 bucks. Worth every dollar .
Changed from a black to white what a difference in
looks plus no more deck flexing.

SeaWeasel,

If you are replacing the rubrail on the 311, you may want to consider thru-bolting it instead of screws. I did it on my 311 and added significant strength/stiffness to the hull/deck bonding area. There was an old thread in the Formula section that would be worth your time to check out. Hope the info on the amp mounting was useful.

I replaced mine last season on my old Fountain. Did it myself for about $400.00. Bought rail from west marine.
Made by Taco. Go to www.diy.net to see which one you want to use. They sell a video on installation. very simple. Save about 400.00 in labor. Takes about 3 hours with help from another person and a heat gun.

Thanks for the replies- my problem is that Voodoo Lounge is (1) at LOTO(2) sitting in a shed (3) on a marina property. My ability to get at it and do anything meaningful is limited, hence the interest in having someone do the work for me.

Red Dog- thanks for the fax. I get it now.
