Rubbing strake re-rubber?

[RobWales]

Hi All,

Could anyone give me a heads up on where I can purchase a new infill rubber for the rubbing strake on a Fairline corniche please?

Also is it an easy job to remove the old and fit the new?

Just the rubber that's poor the metal (i think aluminium) carrier is fine.

Many thanks
Rob.

If you do replace it leave a good overlap of 3 ft or so as it will shrink after a while perhaps for a month or two then trim off.

Just fitted new rubbing strakes to our Targa. Got the exact match from Trend Marine (near Gt. Yarmouth) - Google search will bring up their website. They have supplied Fairline for years and price was okay. I think I got about 50m of the rubber infil for about 40-50 quid and bought over the phone. Very helpful - e-mailled pictures etc to get the match before I ordered.
