 Topic: GUNWALE REPLACEMENTPosted: May-30-2006 at 10:45am |

Has anyone had any experience replacing the gunwale around a 1993 Barefoot Nautique / Nautique Excel? I really don't need to replace the whole gunwale, just the colored vinal strip inside of it. Where can I find this strip, and how hard is it to replace?

Nate,
Sorry about the "missnomer". Tell me about your experience replacing your "rubrail" or will this web site have info on it? Tom |

it wasn't difficult installing the rubrail, HAmick i too had the rop insert in my rubrail & decided to go with a new black rubrail with a black insert, looks good & upgrades it a bit,, total installation time w/ my dad & I was about an hour & 1/2 i think,,, the only semi difficult part is getting the plastic insert into the rubrail, but i just used a heat gun, gently heated it, wetted my hands, pinched it & fed it into it,,, your fingers will hurt for a bti after but ehhhh... its worth it i'd say. Good Luck
