I know Specialty Marine sells a Rub Rail kit for this at 37'. Is that a sufficient amount of length being that it has to wrap around the Bow?

You need at least a foot or so on each side of the transom. leaving you 35 feet. Each side is probably 16-1/2 ft for 33 feet total leaving only 2 feet for the bow. Hence 37 feet is not enough unless you can stretch it which is doubtful. Skipper E-J m/v "Clumsy Cleat" a 2008 Montauk 150

Fits all Boston Whaler Classic 9'-17' hulls from 1958-1999" I can always send it back. Has anyone here ever purchased products from them? http://www.specialtymarine.com/BOSTON...-p141.html
