I am now looking for a bow rail. if anyone has one that they're looking to get rid of, please comment on this post. Thanks!!! Rob 1969 13' - 2001 Tohatsu 40hp More Boats than Brains

I am always fan of personalized fabrications as long as it's cost effective, looks good and is of good craftsmanship or better than what can be purchased. I can appreciate that someone has a business and they try to make a dollar from that business, however, far to often the dollar we the consumers have spent does not represent the R&D or product that has been purchased. So I say fabricate when feasible. Edited by Turpin on 07/29/09 - 10:55 AM 1963 13' Sport 50hp Evinrude Maintaining a level of sanity that is socially acceptable
