I am rebuilding a first 405 and I need to make new counter rails for the galley. Beneteau made a large laminated rail to surround the sinks and the engine cover. Mine, after 25 years of world travels is coming apart and delaminating.
The standard teak rail available for purchase is not tall enough. Under 2". The only one I have found over 2" is a rail called teak bunk rail, however I cannot locate any corners. I find them for sale in the U.K., New Zealand, and other countries. There is even a you tube video of a galley refit were the guy uses teak bunk rails and corners, but I still cannot locate any. Corresponded with all the major chadleries with no hope. Would appreciate if any beneteau owners have done this work before and dont mind sharing their experiences.
I have seen a cast metal corner that doubles as a handhold, used in many C&C, but cannot locate any of those either. if any one knows a supplier for those, I would be thankful.
