hey guys,

im just starting to restore a 15ft mid 80's sport. pretty much everything needs to be replaced, but the hull is in pretty nice condition. was wondering if they made the wrap around side/bow rails for the 15ft and if anyone knows where i could pick them up ?

also whats a good wood to use to rebuild the seats/hatch/etc ?

thanks so much!

Mahogany or teak are the woods to use.

I used teak on mine and I have seen bow rails on EBAY, so keep checking there

My 15' sport came with "Mahogany" so I stayed with that, check "E-Bay" for the rails as mentioned. My E-mail is always open if you need help.
