Replacing rub rail

[Don on JCat Key West]

We are prepping a 1992 Event (34ft), and would like to replace the rub rail insert.Does anyone know the original manufacturer, or a replacement source?Also, does anyone know the values of tension for the stays and shrouds? We'd like to reset the rig once we put her back in the water this fall (in Wilmington, NC).Thanks for your help, Don

Rubrail replaced

Wilks Rubber in England is the only place I found. I talked to a place here in FL but we were talking making dies, smallest run 500 ft. and a couple hundred for tooling just for the dies. Wilks has it in stalk and they shiped it right out. They are on the web (http://www.wilks.co.uk/wilks.htm) and I did the order on the phone because I don't get warm and fuzzies putting that number over the web but it can be done. Looks great. But if you need the metal good luck.

Thanks for the lead

Thanks, I've contacted Wilks and we're trying to match up a profile. By the way, where is Shalimar?
