Need replacement Rub Rails for 1983 Carver 3607 Aft Cabin

Does anybody know of a resource for replacement Rub Rails for a 1983 Carver 3607 Aft Cabin? I need to replace mine all the way around (looks like the previous Operator played bumper cars with the yacht).

You should be able to order rub rail from any decent marine store. They should have a big sample chain of 30 different types to pick from. Otherwise, if there is a boat salvage yard in your area, you could check that out. Trouble is, most salvage yards don't really save much in terms of value. Lower price yes, but bent up rub rails also. 8-) er

You can also try contacting Carver with your hull number and they'll give you the part number and supplier info for your particular rub rail.

I should probably replace mine too, but that's further down the list than some other stuff (like redoing the heads and waste tanks).

You should post what you found and the sources, just in case others ( :) ) might need that info in the future!

I found a generic rub rail that will work fine. West Marine
