Replacing bump strips

[Rodg98133]

I have a 1970s/1980s broom speedboat. The bumpstrips on the side have seen better days and are scuffed and coming away from the boat. Here is a picture of the worse bit

Can i buy replacements? Do i buy them specifically for my boat or are they universal? What are they actually called?

Thems called 'Rubbing Strakes'!
Google that
Or 'D' section rubbers wot go around the gunnel'
There are various suppliers
'D' fendering should also get you on the right track
