I am looking for a toe rail replacement for an 84 Hunter 25.5 sailboat that was damaged during the last hurricane to hit Nova Scotia. I am told that they are no longer making that style of toe rail. I appreciate your help, Ali.

Call Hunter
Have you called Hunter? They are usually pretty good about pointing you in the right direction of the manufacturer of the original or someone who makes a replacement. See their website and send in a question or call.

Taco Metals
Ali: Contact Taco Metals. This is where Hunter will send you too. They make the stuff, it is just a matter if you need to replace the entire rail or not.

No longer make
I have contacted Hunter and Taco. Taco doesn't quite have a match for the 84 Hunter toe rail.

Style of toe rail needed
This is a rough drawing of the style of toe rail that I need for the 84 Hunter. I need a 24 ft piece in satin finish. Thanks Ali

Lots of demand
Ali: You should contact Taco and ask them how much they would charge to make this stuff for you. There have been so many inquiries lately about this stuff. I must assume that most of the boats during that era all had the same toe rail. Each of the owners that are looking would need between 25-45' per side. Someone is looking for just 18", but I do not know how they are going to make it work around the curve of the hull unless they can get someone to weld it for them.

How Much
Could you check the price a 25 ft piece of toe rail would be for an 84 Hunter and let me know? Or tell me the name and phone number of the salvage yard and I will call them. Thank you.
