I'm not a novice when it comes to rub rails. I've removed/replaced/repaired rub rails on several power boats. Bill is right. The rub rail on older C&C's is sandwiched between the deck and hull. Replacement requires lifting the deck off the hull. Not a job lightly undertaken. Even splicing in

That Sea Ray Rub rail looks like a rubber extrusion that can be squeezed into an aluminum extrusion. I think the C&C rub rails are a flat piece of rubber that is bolted in between the two flanges of the deck and the hull. Not so easy. Bill Coleman On Tue, Nov 17, 2020, 7:12 PM CHARLES SCHEAFFER

I had a surprisingly good result fixing similar gouging on my boat’s vinyl. I used a rasp to clean out the dirt and provide a clean bonding surface, then filled the gouges with white Marine Tex. Once shaped and sanded, you could barely notice the repair. Time will tell how well it ages and stick

Found someone who replaced the rub rail on a Sea Ray and I believe our rub rail would be installed similarly. You may be inspired by this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmMcjlZfW7g Chuck S > On 11/17/2020 5:33 PM John Conklin wrote: > > > So also took a hit last hurricane whi

So also took a hit last hurricane which was not as bad as the past but a different wind direction. I did not claim insurance as it is strictly cosmetic (rail has been buried many times since by not a drop of water)and looked like a daunting task to change the rub rail or even a small piece of i

Urethane might be more durable, but it is usually more liquid, which would require some type of mold to contain it. But it is pretty tough. There are many grades though, not sure which would be best. Hard to find in white. https://www.mcmaster.com/urethane/food-industry-casting-compounds/ Bil
