Definitely go with the Taco stainless. Use a heat gun to form the hard vinyl, but DO NOT overheat or you'll be adding a lot of joints to your rail or buying new vinyl. Be patient.

I have a 1976 SeaCraft 18, never plan to get rid of it. Just in the process of completing a major overhaul from a bare hull / adding new transom. A lot of work, but it will be nice when done. I'll post a picture -- once I figure out how!
