    Am about to remove the bow rail from our 99 Ocean 45SS. It's in great shape. Anybody need to replace theirs? It's in St Augustine, Fl.

    Thanks

    I know this is a really old post, but I just purchased a 87 44SS that has no bow rail.
    Where can I find one??

    Finding a bow rail is going to be a hard wish. In Jacksonville, our metal fab guy makes them. Usally all welded, to your required height and shape. You may have one of these kids in your hood.
    It is a few bux more than you purchasing the tubing, fittings, hardware, bender and your labor, but an all welded rail setup will be stronger and resell better.

    There's got to be somebody near you that builds towers and t tops that can weld one up for you. Won't be cheap though.

    Call Marine Connection Liquidators in Ft Pierce, FL. 772-465-6460 as they have hundreds of bow rails from 30' to 70 ' sport boats. I had a bow rail removed from a 60 ft Viking convertible in a yard in Stuart FL. and that's where it ended up. Shipping something like this would be an interesting proposition though. I would figure that it would have to be cut for shipping and then welded back together and weld polished
