    Default Rub rail


    Do any of you know where to purchase the Rub rail material for a aluminum jon boat? It looks like maybe pvc or well pipe hose. Its a 1 1/4. Don't want to put pipe insulation. Want to do it right the first time.Thumbs Up

    i don't know how "tackey" it would look but you could go to a farm service store and look at the, normally, red or a shade of red, hose farmers use. you would have to split it straight from one end to the other but i think it would stay on the boat rail. they should also have a plastic green/clear hose but it would be a booger to split unless you used a power saw and help to hold it. it would probably look better on this boat too.

    I found out its well pipe. Lay it out in the sun for a few hours, unrolled. Take a board put a utility blade razor in it. Mount the board on something stout and strong. Pull the hose through the blade. Maybe have someone to help you. Or use clamps as a guide.

    I've had customers cut PVC and screw it over the cap rails. It works great below the dam at Pickwick when rubbing the walls.
    We only sell the Best. Ranger, Xpress, Yamaha, Suzuki, Tohatsu.
