What was the configuration of your rub strip (ie. how was it mounted) and what did you run into replacing it?

The C&C emblem flanking the sides of the bow were easy to find Holland Marine in Missisauga Ontario (www.hollandmarine.com) makes reproductions. However, After many hours of scoring the web I was not able to find 1/16 - 1/4 - 1/16 stripes that came originally on the boat as an easy to apply package but found a way around it: Great Lakes Skipper (www.greatlakesskipper.com) Sells Bayliner stripes that are dark blue and almost a perfect match for the C&C logo stripes. The bonus is that the 1/16 stripes come with a backing that gives you the exact 1/16" spacing you need to build-up the 3 stripes look without looking like a 6 year old did it. (http://greatlakesskipper.com/bayliner-1-8-inch-dark-blue-boat-pinstripe ) Since the cove stripe area is recessed on my hull you simply apply the 1st 1/16" stripe on the edge of the recess (A masking tape base strip can help for this:). Next, lay the 1/4" stripe against the pattern indicator of the 1st stripe, then lay the 3rd 1/16" stripe using its pattern indicator. -Done. One of my rub strips had a rash from a PO hitting a dock so I also bought a new rub strip from SouthShore marine (A bit spendy at 250.00 per side but cleans-up the look considerably) . Combine that with a combination Woody wash / wax and good old fashion compound / carnauba wax job on the whole boat: Looking pretty spiffy my friend. -Francois _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
