Hello, I’m restoring a 1977 v mate 2 and I’m needing to replace a piece of aluminum rub rail that is damaged as well as the rubber insert. Would you be able to help? Can’t find the correct size anywhere

I only produce the insert, not the aluminum rail.

How much do you charge for 50’ of insert. Is there a certain way to measure the proper size?

Please message me and I will give you my phone number so we can discuss in detail.
Thank you.

Had the Sportfire out today with the new engine and it was running great. I added some power mods to the 4.3 And I’m pretty happy with the performance . It jumped right on plane and hit 50 mph pretty quick .I’m not hammer it to much until it gets some breaking time but so far I’m happy .
Dr bob
Been off for a while but still have the Sportfire just installed a fresh 4.3 with some performance mods .the boat is really running great!

Nice looking boat, man! I have a 1982 Sportfire that I am restoring. The upholstery is getting done now. Are those your original captains seats? I could not find any myself so I just used some look-alike ones. Your boat looks amazing, with the original gauges and everything

I actually may have a snap on cover for an Eluder. Let me know if you're still interested, and I'll go look in the garage.

I own a 1982 Checkmate Diplomat with a 150 merc Black Max. A few pictures attached. Very nice for a 41 year old boat. Very fast too...almost too fast for an old guy like me!

H Simbert. In 1987 the only 19 foot boat Checkmate made was an Exciter. However your boat does not look like an exciter. Your boat looks like a 20 foot Senator

Where is the boat located? The picture is hard to tell if the finish is original? Is it metal flake?

I have a CHawk trailer for my 1990 20’ Pacifica. I want to sell both to get a 23.5 Persuader. Not sure if I want to sell the trailer without the boat. Let me know what you are looking to do. Do you want both😁

Looking for a ladder for 1997 Pulsare

Hopefully you have the top and need the bottom but if not you may need an electrican. They can bend this tubing if they run a lot of conduit. Ask around through your friends. You then need a donor ladder but all of todays boat ladders may not work so look to RV Ladders. They have the long flat rails that are more square and you can get one long enough to make you whole ladder.
