    You might check with Marine Connections in Fort Pierce Fla they have tons of rails do not know what the shipping would be. Mine are in the woods but if I ever sell the boat the the buyer might want them.

    This is from this past march, had to cut out the old console and benches. I had a couple nuisance leaks and thought this would be a good time to modernize the fly-bridge. IMG_2308.jpg IMG_2142.jpg

    Final push for a end of July 2017 family vacation; included installing a new marine elegance head, new berth mattresses and galley refrigerator. Also an oil change/fuel filter change in which i discovered the reverso-flo impeller was bad. Had manually express all that oil. We had to push the trip back one day due to a rare July strong cold-front blowing thru New Orleans and the gulf states. It was worth the delayed push off day as we woke up to less than 50% humidity and calm sea's! IMG_2626.jpg
