NoBones loves his and they were factory. If for some reason, you don`t want them I sure do!

DO NOT.... I REPEAT...
Do not take them off !!!!
They deaden the re-entry on every wave you take.
Tape them off and go ahead with your paint job.

They are the best thing on your boat..

See ya, Ken

Curses, foiled again.
65 Bowrider said NoBones was the best riding 20 EVER.
I suspect the rails have a lot to do with it.
Ken, have you any thoughts on smart rails?

I have seen them Sandy... They just do not look as nice.
IMO Teak rails are the only way to go..
I have been in both 20 & 23's with the teak rails.
They do make a difference !!

Hey Ken ,
Do you have a source for the teak rails? $?
