Originally the transom did not have a rub rail on it. When Strick was on vacation in FL. we had a chance to boat BS and he thought a rub rail all the way around would look cool. WHO am I to argue with the guru himself
A friend came over to lend a hand. The transom was a learning curve since there was no easy radius. Almost 90' bend. Had to die grind the back and use a heat gun, but it worked.
Transom,
Side view,
Side with scrap of stainless,
The rest of the rub rail should be easy. However I know when I get the S/S inserts that transom bend will be tricky.
