Back In The Saddle Again!

Thanks guys. It's rewarding to see the vision come to reality after all the hard work is winding to an end. I've been racking my head on the seating right now. I'm going back and forth with either custom helm seats on a fiberglass base with a seat cushion on the back or just buying a couple of those back to back folding lounge seats.

Terry no problem with bending the SS insert around the corners it is flexible enough if you use a rubber mallet and have someone hold up the end while you work the corner being careful to tell the other person to pull up or down so it stays in it's track while you beat it with the rubber mallet. The rigid vinyl needs to be heated with a heat gun and it contours easily. You will get a little dimple on the bottom that needs to be trimmed off (see pic below) and then fill with calk any gap there may be at the corners. The rub rail fits nice and snug on the straight sections no calk needed but I will put a small bead of clear silicone around the top and bottom just to ensure that no water will get in.

Wow strick that looks so good! I added a SS rubrail on my 21 Mako and already have it for my 23 SC project, IMHO, it is the cheapest way to make a boat really "pop" gives an ultra high end look! Yours looks so good to as it contrasts so nicely with that great blue color!
I'm sure it's in the thread, but paint type and color is that? Is it awlgrip. Anyway looks fantastic!
