Gary - good luck on this one!  We've been round' the horn a couple of times on this one.  When a yard kindly ripped my rubrail out of the side of my boat last Spring, I almost pooped my pants!  No....seriously....I did.  But that would have been ONLY after I choked the 18 years lift operator to death with a piece of my rubrail.

I had no choice but to settle for the repair that was made.  I guess it is acceptable but shouldn't have happened in the first place.  I blame myself for not insisting on; a) double straps, or; b) blocking out the straps with carpeted 4x4's. My bad.

From what I've discovered this rubrail just ain't available from anywhere, anyhow, anyway.  I researched this high and low. 

I'm sure you have googled and gaggled all the same sites I did.  Good luck!
