Thank you for the great replies.

What a terrible design on the rail. I was hoping there was a 2 piece T out there. I'll keep checking, if not I'll go the hot dog method.

This Whaler had been sitting for a few years on the side of the yard. I'm just trying to get her in the water. So for now I'm refinishing the wood and will have to replace some. I will fill some of the old mount holes and remount some of the wood.

Great advice on the filling the holes. I do have some on the outside and some chips. I will be heading to West Marine and get some Gel Coat and fill these outside areas.

I've been reading lots of articles out there and really excited.

Thanks again
Kenny
