I am presently looking for end caps of this model for the popularly shared"My Girl's refit" project.
The part's wanted list seems to be endless but still full of pleasant(for the most part) interactions within the vast Whaler Community.
I had the pleasure of meeting a lot of great guys through these scavenger hunts.
So once again I will be putting a request for my need for these caps needed to neatly button up the rubrail of my revered Classic 19 Lady.
Here is an in house photo of such part.

Thank You for your consideration.

Serge,

According to the packaging, the end caps in the photo you reference are for a 1997 or prior 21 foot Outrage.

I don't know if they would fit your application. I sent you some more pictures via your listed email.

Mike

Serge, I dont think those will work on your girl. Here is what it mine looked like. Most just terminate with a screw and washer at the end. I didnt like that so I made up some custom one off end pieces.

Ritz: You are not going to believe this but I made my own out of Aluminum for my sons 11 whaler. I hate the factory end caps,(do not hold, look bad, cheap) and I'm going to make some for my 16 as well. dogdlv@att.net

Seems to be just the item Scott.
Good to be back on line and chatting with one of my Amigo Friend once again.
Wonder what ever happened to Rob and his low pro?
The end caps on the Wind look just right and much better than the original set up.
Custom made seems to be the way to go.
Contender,
Always keen to share with the group about your end cap solutions..
Thank to all for their input,
The search is still on for the caps that may be further costumised to meet our needs here.
