and where can I get some. This hard plastic moulding is what my spray hood attaches to. It is starting to crack and I would like to replace.

looks like just stock aluminum angle 1" x 1" or maybe 1 1/2" x 1/2" that has been rolled to fit your bow.....I would bet a million dollars you wont find a replacement pre rolled to your boat....might have to go custom and get the right size angle from an aluminum supplier and have a metal fab shop roll it for you.....

Thanks for the replies. Its' not aluminum but a solid hard rubber. It is screwed in the deck every 6 inches for 16 feet. I don't really use the spray hood/dodger anymore. Just dont want to gelcoat repair 32 holes.

As far as the a knee / shin skinner - not really but it looks like it though. The gunnells are high enough i guess.

oh in that case you may be better off because now you wont have to roll it you can just have to find the right material and form it as you go....

is it L shaped or a solid rectangular bar?...

I'm pretty sure that's a place holder for the lovely mahogany accent strip your brother-in-law will be making for you.

PS: Don't ask him to paint it to match your pinstripes.

PPS: Sorry mate, couldn't resist.
