Thanks John,I e-mailed them , Might as well do it now,Just wondering if I should let the ol Girl cure before I stick it to Her !!Algrip , only the bottom has been painted,sides still primer.All I have is a few pics of Before.This Labor of love kinda started as a transom FIX.
Ended up pulling every screw/hardware/EVERYTHING off.Filled every hole(glass)including top to bottom under rubrail.
All new(toyz) electronics/gauges/Windshield.
Lets put it this way.Steering(hyd)/Throttle/Trim tabs are the only thing staying.
I've got a lot from here !
I rhino linered the sides under the gunnels !White,I'm gonna make rod holders closer in.
No carpet so no sand or caught hooks.Should be
easy to clean.Again Thanks

Capt. Brad- Sounds like a Master Angler? I
have the black carpet on my 78'. I would
like to see the rhino lined sides. When I
installed the Bennet M-80's, It got rid of
90% of the spray and the listing problems
in a quartering sea. Its interesting the
20 MA didn't change much after 79'. CSY
kept the Potter mold 19'8" on that model
only. The only change might be the console?

John- 9" of snow? I have about 3 feet at
my door and can't open it [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

I put a pair of spray rails on my 15 1/2 palm beach flates boat. Man oh man, it was a wet boat! Now it is about 80% dryer. I think its called the smartrail. Search using yahoo. It cost about $285.00 and took 2 hours to install. Let me tell you, they are NEVER coming off. I may end up putting them on my 23' sooner or later.

Well I called Mr. Vader.Knoledgable Guy(SeaCraft).Of course He told Me (now that I've painted the bottom & primed all the rest) that these boats had a flaw under the forward ice chest void that cracked? Mine seemed solid,I'll pound on it later.$650.for Teak spray rails.This Misstress of Mine.They do look classy !
Thanks for all the heip still waiting on a reply from smart rails.

IF ANYONE OUT THERE NEEDS THE ORIGINAL SC TEAK SPRAY RAILS YOU CAN CALL MR VADER AT (ATLANTIC MARINE LIFE) IN MIAMI.(305)226-1780.. HE WAS THE DESIGNER OF THOSE RAILS FOR POTTER BACK IN THE DAYS. IF YOURE GOING ALL OUT IN RESTORATION IT'S A GOOD TOUCH AND CLASSY TOO.
