What make spray rails did you use on that boat? And did they help, in your opinion.

Thanks

Barbour plastics. For the purpose of my boat, no they didnt help. They kept the tabs from performing to their max by more resistence. Then when you would be riding in chop you could feel a slight..."bump"... when the waves would hit the rails. Basically didnt allow the boat to slice thru the water.
Now this 1967 bowrider im redoing has no hard chine on the outer edge of the hull. So the bottom of the hull at the front goes striaght up to the sides of the hull. So this may need some skinny rails to help deflect water.

the 2K sounded fair too

Yeah om my 20' MA I raised it around 5" and was flush from bow to stern. Had around
20" freeboard in rear corner, 26" center of rear, and 30-32" at the bow
