Looking for the small teak wood that runs on the side of the boat that is just for looks. It looks like it is 10 feet long and around 3/4 inch wide. Any suggestions on supplier?

Can't remember the name, but if you pull out a galley drawer and look at the bottom or inside, the supplier's name is on it.

I have the same boat with the wood side strips above the windows. At the boat show they looked just wonderful, but over time they dry out, split, break at the screw install point and start looking horrible!! Mine were varnished by the previous owner long ago and were tough to refinish. I do not know if they are available or even how they could be shipped, but if you find anything out regarding availability from the factory, please post!
Only options are to remove, fill in the screw holes, compound and wax, paint a strip or fabricate a new one. I do not think that removing would change the look of the boat given that the window design on the Mark II provides a nice linear look. I am opting for removing, filling in screw holes (small), compounding and waxing.

I removed and filled the ones on my Hunter. (Actually they were already off and in little pieces down below when I got her) I just filled in the holes on the cabin. The Admiral wishes they were back on. So check with the Boss! ;)
