Looking through the OEM parts pictures, I'm now doubting that my stainless siderails and bowrail are original to my 1969 17-footer. The hexkey setscrews are not at all like the panheads with the nylon bushings. The brackets seem to be made of pot metal and plated, and are stamped Taiwan underneath. They're old, for sure, but maybe not as old as my 38 year old Whaler!

Got the first coat on deck. Interlux Yacht Enamel, semigloss white. Looks purty darn good! Can't wait to hang the jewelry on her!

I'm glad we found out your rails and screws are not original although I'm sure you wish they were.
See the prior discussion on the railing screws here: http://www.whalercentral.com/forum/vi...#post_7168
