removing scratches

Hi,

Can someone tell me if it's possible to buy a bumper that goes around the boat, mine hit the dock and has been damaged.

thanks,

Justin

Yep its just rub rail. You can replace it. Looks like its about $160. Thats basically what it is there for. It also covers the seem where the upper and lower halves of the boat are sealed together. Thats minor, I would leave it until you have a few more spots beat up, then maybe replace it.

Put some heat to it with a hot air gun and maybe you could mold it back to shape.

Get some fenders fenders and tie them to your cleats before you get near the dock. They will do the best job of keeping your boat away from damage, especially when the rub rail and the dock don't line up. That way you can avoid damage to the gelcoat of your boat. Cheap insurance, at around $10-12 each, plus a small length of rope.
