There are quite a few threads out there that discuss rub rails and hull-to-deck joints. Many people favor Taco, others Wefco as sources for rub rail replacement. The hull-to-deck joint on the E25 appears to be similar in construction to what is found on other boats in the Ericson line. So...

Like everyone else, my white rub rail is past the pale and I am inclined to replace it rather than try to paint it. I'd appreciate any info on manufacturer and specific insert number or designation for anyone who has done this on an '81 38 footer. The cost would also be helpful. Also was it...

Anyone know the best replacement for my 87 E34? See photo. I doubt anybody makes the exact rail.

Do You know where can I get replacement rubber rail on the hull? Thanks, CJ

A recent raft-up debacle has left me with cracked rub rail molding on my starboard hull. Does anybody know where to get rub rail molding for an '81 ericson '38? I'm in Marina del Rey. Any Boat yards or anybody that has extra around?

On Oct. 7th we had a nor'easter rip through Long Island Sound, and it kicked up 50 knot winds and 6 foot waves at Morris Cove in New Haven harbor. The Aluminum casting on the bow was broken in half and the rub rail came loose all the way to the stern. The force of the pennant also broke part of...

There appears to be quite a few threads where we have all discussed painting rub rails with vinyl paint, krylon clear coat, etc... Anybody have a feedback on the results of these endeavors? I need to stop the chalky streaks!!!:mad:

A fellow 1984 35 Mklll owner at our Marina asked me to find out how and where to purchase replacement rub rails. His are a bit beat up from the PO. They appear to be aluminum and are attached with screws. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey, If anyone has any E29, E27, or E30 parts available, I'm looking for the metal casting that goes over the bow and seals the deck joint. Willing to pay a good amount for it. I'm pretty sure that many sizes of the boat use the same size part, so even if it isn't an E29 please contact me and...

I have an 1988 28' and the rub rail was banged up by Ike. I want to replace it with the original. Does anyone know where it can be purchased. Thank you in advance

Buzzard's bay on crappy wind against current day decided to borrow several pieces of rub rail from Serendipity. I am not one to argue with an angry body of water so I decided to hand it over peacefully. Now I am stuck trying to replace 3 section of aluminum rub rail. Anyone found a source for...

60' of Rub Rail Insert Hard to find. I have 60' of Rub Rail Insert from Wefco Rubber Manufacturing. I believe this will fit many Ericson's from the 1970's from E-27's to E-30's. Priced to sell at $2.00 per foot. Must purchase the whole 60 feet so the cost is $120.00 plus...

An earlier post discussed painting the rubrail to prevent chalking, using a product called Vinylon, which is designed for buoys. I found only one outlet for this product, and it is in Seattle. It would cost me 40 dollars to ship a 20 dollar quart to Baltimore. I called a local chandelry...

I bought eighty feet of rub rail about a year ago to use on my E35II. The boat was built in 1971 and the rail was weathered, cracked and looked 37 years old. I heard so many horror stories about the difficulty of removing the old and inserting the new that I just kept putting off the task--that...

Six or Seven months ago I had the company that produced the original rub rails for Ericson, extrude about eighty feet for my E35 II. Besides waiting for warmer weather I think I have been procrastinating a bit after taking a brief shot at removing the old rub rail. That stuff has been there...

Anyone know where I can find the bow rub rail piece that is on an the 27? Finishing up a lot of renovation work on ragamuffin and can not find this part.

I have two 33 foot lengths of Wefco Rubber rub rail insert no. 788 for sale. They are brand new, still in the box. After purchasing this product, I decided to install wood rub rails instead. I know this will come back to haunt me (many hours of wood refinishing)! This rub rail insert product...

:thinker: Hi I have a 1974 Ericson 35 and I need to replace the rub rail...does anyony know where I might be able to get this replaced. Thx Mark

I'll be pulling my '76' E27' from the water shortly and will need to pull the mast. Does the mast support sit above the deck or does the mast sit below the deck? The only fastner is a slotted screw in the slot at the rear of the mast. Also is there an electrical disconnect in the mast? If so how...

Yesterday I ordered a replacement Rub Rail for my Ericson and it will be delivered in two or three weeks. The Boat was built in 1971 and the existing rail is more like steel than rubber. I'm looking for some suggestions on the removal. Does anyone have any easy solutions?

I am considerin purchasing an Ericson 27 but the rub rail looks very dried out The boat has been in storage for several years Anyone know of a replacement what elese should I look out for. it is an A4 Wheel model Thanks Mike

Aloha, I am looking for 10-15' of mounting bracket for the rub railing on my Ericson 27. Anyone know where I can get some? I bought the Ericson 27 on this page for $4000, yea baby! Thanks, Big Kahuna

This may not help but I thought I would mention that I have a surplus of about one 26 1/2 foot length of the rubber insert from my E-27. I also have about a 6 foot length of the rubber insert. The reason was that when I bought it from PSC it only came in 40 foot lengths. I also have about a 6...

I have a chronic problem with the rub rail leaving streak marks on the hull. My hull is flag blue (very dark blue) just repainted it this past weekend and the rubrail is white. I get these unsightly white streaks coming down the side of the hull everytime it rains, I wonder if there is a...

I'm in the process of pulling Luffin it (27) out and doing the bottom paint and am thinking about replacing the old (1979) vinyl rub rail. Other than the PS listing for it, is there a Taco number that anyone knows which would be a replacement for it. Or any other ideas would be greatly...

Does anyone know where I can find 12 feet of rub rail for a 1988 E26? I have tried Pacificseacraft and Wefco ( they make rubber only) with no luck. The pacificseacraft part number is 0057102. The Pacificseacraft web site has a nice view of it but states it is out of stock. Did anyone buy more...

Hello all, I' looking for the bow cap for my e27 rubrail. Anyone have one they want to part with or know where I can get one? Thanking you in advance. Ray :egrin:

I think I have sourced my leak to be a section of rubrail and not the genoa track as I had feared. My question is how hard is it to remove and rebed a section? It looks to me like it is all one big piece and that I would need to carefully pry out the rubber/vinyl partion to reveal screws...

Can anyone direct me to a source for E23-1 Rub Rail insert? Thanks.

Does anyone know if there is a difference between the rub rails offered by Wefco, and the ones offered by Pacific Seacraft, other than price? Gareth Freyja E35 #241 1972

I would like to replace the rub rail on my E27, does anyone know where and how I can obtain a new one? We've had some rain here in southern Nevada this past month (a lot of it) and the oxidation has run onto my newly color-sanded and buffed hull sides (and they look great too btw). Anyway...

Ahoy: The boat yard where I keep my boat has asked me to see if anyone knows where to get the aluminum extrusion that is part of the rub rail on an 1986 Ericson 38. Though I have not seen it myself, it has been described to me as "short, fat u-shaped section of aluminum about 1-1/4" wide."...

Hi There, Is there any one out there that knows of a supplier of rub rail parts for my 1983 E25+. Thanks Rich

There's something growing out of my rubrail. Like mildew or moss or something. So I'm figuring I need to remove it, clean it out, and reseal it. Has anyone done this? What's the process. Do I need to look out for anything?

I had some recent damage on my Ericson 38 rub rail. There is a rigid plastic extrusion piece that secures to the hulll and a vinyl piece that snaps into it. I need about 5 fto of the rigid piece. I can get the exact piece at Pacific Seacraft, but they want $5 a ft plus up $70 shipping at 40ft...

I had an unintended meeting with a small powerboat today. We drifted together and his bow pulpit pressed up against my port quarter rub rail. It wasn't a hard hit and there appears to be no structural damage. However, the rub rail got pressed in before we could fend off each other. It's about a...

I was wondering if anyone out there knows where to get the aluminum rub rail on the 1967 E26? Pacific Seacraft offers an aluminum rub rail but they don't know if it will fit on a boat of that age. Also would anyone know of any documentation on how to replace the rub rail and the seal properly?
