Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: hatch weather seal/foam liner replacement

I'm guessing the black foam weather striping trim, which is flat and flush with the hatch lid on the fish box, and the generator access lifting deck is crushed flat and not working well . wondering what size rubber adhesive trim I need to purchase:
2004 BW Conquest 305; twin Yamaha 250


(changed year for clarification)

Did you check http://www.bostonwhaler.com/boat-owne...resources/ for the parts list/diagram?
Although I didn't see they made a 2014 305.

FYI found it - Part #1232156 - is the smaller, 1/2" wide trim seal with adhesive. you need 10' per fish box and 15.5' for generator hatch.

BW HQ part number turned out to be the wrong size (1/4". They don't have a parts sheet/diagram for 2004 so we use later model sheets. but they also do not show rubber trim....

so, still looking for the fish box rubber trim, almost 1" wide and appears 'ribbed'. Conquest 305, 2004; Ive learned that the 'generator hatch/mechanical hatch trim (on the bottom channel) is now white. the top trim on the hatch that opens, is the same as the fish box, and ribbed.

Replacing trim is impossible! Even BW Head quarters can't help. I've located the correct (larger) trim for the Generator main deck hatch (the lower gunnel) - that was easy. But the smaller trim that is attached to the hatch lid, that opens, (and the same trim that is on both fish boxes and appears to be 'ribbed' in design) is elusive and I've had to return 3 boxes of the 'wrong' trim, back to my BW rep.....anyone know a part number (not listed on the BW diagrams)
