Boy, if somebody ever comes up with a source for colored rub rail inserts they are going to retire early...

Who was the original manufacturer of the rub rail? I am guessing the insert is 1/2" diameter.

I have seen some folks use lengths of industrial silicone tubing which comes in various diameters, colors and thicknesses.... Seems as though the softer silicone would be an easier replacement material. Don't know how it holds up.

Taco marine makes the inserts I have found out. They make black- white, and grey. Wonder if they would make the other colors ?

There has to be something out there that would work. I would like to do some research. I hate seeing boats that once had color have none after the rubrail is replaced.

I could arrange this, work for a coatings manufacturer and am technical lead for automotive division which primarily develops coatings for rubber extrusion.
Colour matching would be no issue, but it probably wouldn't be cost affective unless you live in Europe!

Need to know if the insert is 3/8" or 1/2". Taco marine sells black 50' role for $39 I found. 1/2" is $90. Need to know diameter to find out some options for people. I did find the best way to clean one is with a mr clean magic eraser. They almost look like new when you are done.

From what I remember depends on whether you have the original rail or not. I went for taco marine replacement rubrail and insert, got raped on import duty from US!!
If your looking to 'paint' the insert then best to check that it isn't already coated with a clear release agent as you could have problems with getting it to adhere. The same applies if looking to source silicone tube I would stick to EPDM

Pretty sure it was 5/8” on all the boats that came with colored rub rail inserts

Yes 5/8" is correct. Spoke with someone at correct craft. Also said taco marine was the company that made the rub rail. Did not know if they made insert. Gonna check with them next.

If you painted a rubrail I imagine you would have greater problems getting it to not unadhere whenever you rubbed anything.

So I just got off the phone with Taco marine. They did in fact make the rub rails and inserts. They told me that they would make any color you want! But the minimum order is 2000 ft. So that leaves Zach at N3 to start taking orders. Would only need to sell 40 boats of each color ordered. So hope that helps everyone if you want oem.

40 boats sounds like a tall order, who knows?? On Blue looks like we have 2, only 38 to go

Thanks for the info, if it does materialize I would definitely be in for one boat (50') of Vapor Blue or Silver metallic if available.

Someone said you can use 16mm (outer diameter) silcone tubing. Blue is available in that size on eBay for under $4 a foot. Blue - Red - Yellow are also available. They have purple and pink too.

I would be down for the red. How are you supposed to keep them original if you can't source them? Maybe we need to get our plastic expert,Dave Gwinn on this

Your ebay solution at $4 a foot x 50 feet is $200. That's some spendy rub rail inserts. What was the price of 2000 feet from Taco Marine? If we can get enough "blue guys" on here to get my cost down to $75 - $100 I'm in.

Steve,

The yellow/black '90 on the yellow tandem is the boat we launched at Arrowhead Marina &RV Park, Glenville, NY 12302, 518 382-8966 (free advertisement) in September and the one you got pics of along side your Barefooter. I think you even got some shots on the trailer parked next to your boat. Post them if you can, but I'm thinking the 90 is due for an outing at the CT mini 2014!!

Todd

Zach, who is in line for the Wineberry rubrail insert. Sounds like Hollywood needs red, and I would use on my 04 ski to replace the factory installed black. Send me a PM with the length to fit an 04 Ski and a price if it is available.

Todd

Also black inserts from taco for 50' range from $89-$115- that without being customized. Those obviously are retail prices. Maybe if enough people prepay- Zach could do the project a little
Over cost. I need yellow- so I am guessing that will be tough to find 40 takers.

Figure out a way to market these to other manufacturers with the same rub rail.

Ok so Here goes nothing.









Alright, the first two lenses I believe to be for the mid-late 60s bow lights.

The second one with the clear pieces I believe to be the lenses for the earlier-mid 60s rear all around light.

The bullet bow lights I have no clue

The other clear one is oddly shaped and I am not sure what it fits

The large ones I believe to fit the early large bow light (could be wrong)

The last ones are weird and I am also not sure what they fit

The quantities of the mid 60s are plenty. All of the others I just have a few.

Found some NOS mid-late 60s gauges. They are identical to what came out of our Skylark other than having orange pointers instead of white. Great original un used shape. I think I have enough to make 2 full sets of 4 IE(water temp, fuel, oil, volts).

So we are offering up first born sons right off the bat? I was thinking we could start the bidding slightly lower, and that only after better pictures would the bidding go that high.
