This is what I bought for my 95 SNOB: F92033 -- 50ft of uniflex rub rail F779 -- 50ft black insert tubing I dealt with Mark at Integrity Marine. Several pictures of the rub rail in the linked thread. www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40135&PN=2&title=1995-snob-winter-overhaul |

For those that are curious, that's between a pencil eraser which is shore A 40 and a average normal tire at shore A 60. |

Use this to check Funny Car rear tires. They usually come in between 43 and 47

I reached out to integrity marine for color samples of their rubrail insert. It is 5/8 diameter and is part #725. Top is dark blue and bottom is laser blue. I think I'll be ordering laser blue for my teal striped super sport! I think it is 0.75/foot in a 50' roll. Kyle |

Yes it is, I have black MacMaster tubing as the insert in my rub rail. It works fine but is a little soft. They didn't have teal to match my original insert. |

I got the rub rail in the mail today. It is the identical dimensions as the original. It even has predrilled holes. The rubber feels very high quality.

Isn't the insert plastic tubing? Blue tubing is available. McMaster has it. The challenge would be determining the durometer. |

I also thought it was made by Taco but noticed none of the taco rub rails had the same shape. The sites that did sell the replacement rub rail referred to it as 'Dual Durometer' so I googled 'Dual Durometer Rub Rail' and found Integrity Marine and they had the matching rail with inserts.
Sucks they don't have the colour inserts anymore, even though I prefer the look of the black insert I like to keep things looking original. Thanks for calling and confirming. I was gonna post to suggest that just to be 100% sure it was correct. |

Thanks for saving me a ton of money. I owe you a few beers.
FWIW, I spoke to Mark (integrity marine) for a few minutes and it seems that they have been making this stuff for a long time for CC and just started selling it direct a few months ago. I mentioned that I thought Taco was the OE manufacturer. He assured me they were not and much of there stuff came out of china. he was very knowledgeable and helpful. Hope this helps someone else. Great find Blamey! |

That's great. Happy my investigation last week was fruitful.
I may just order one too. 250 is a great price. My rail isn't as bad as yours but a new one will really freshen up the boat. |

Blamey,
I emailed integrity marine about the product. Here is the reply: From: mark@integritymarinecorp.com [mailto:mark@integritymarinecorp.com] Sent: Monday, October 31, 2016 9:43 AM To: Ernest McCallum Subject: Re: F92021 / F725 Uniflex Rubrail Hi Ernest, I manufactured the original rubrail for your Correct Craft. It is my F92033 with the F779 insert and I have it in black 50' coils and it would be $250 for the combination plus the UPS. I don't make the insert in any other color than the black but you could buy a rope insert if you wanted a specific color. Regards, Mark I think I am going to give them a try. I am ok with a black insert. Price is right. Christines has gone up to $700 for the kit! |

I was doing some digging and seeing if I could find some cheaper options for rub rails for my boat.
I managed to find these two products from Barbour Plastics. F92021 Uniflex Rubrail. F725 Rub Rail Insert As far as I can tell these are the correct replacement Rub Rails and inserts for the 1987 to 2005 boats. The F725 is the rub rail insert and is sold at http://www.integritymarinecorp.com/. Here is a link Insert Rub Rail The insert comes in various colors including Black, Dark Blue, Laser Blue, Charcoal Grey and Platinum. Unfortunately the website doesn't give examples on the colors but the prices are low enough that somebody looking for a color insert may be willing to take a chance to see if they match the original colors.. Overall the cost is around half for the rail and insert what I have found elsewhere. |

I do not have any pictures. The boat I installed the new insert tubing on almost 2 years ago is holding up well!

I ordered the red and went to do it this summer. Got about 5 feet into it and did not like the fit, just way too loose. Combine that with it being softer and gummier than the original I felt like if I parked next to a pier post the insert could roll out with the up and down wave action. I ended up putting the replacement black one back in.

Hi All,
Looks like nobody came back with an update on how this held up. Anybody got an update? I'm looking to replace the rub rail on my new to me Sport Nautique. . |

Wow, look what I started... We need some pictures from the folks who have used this idea on their boats. Mine is still a little work away from seeing daylight, although a rogue 70 degree and sunny day in April here in the Seattle area has me ITCHING to get the carpet down and get this boat in the water!

Kevin (harddock) - could you post some pictures of what this looks like on your boat? If my McMaster-Carr solution does not last long for some reason I would be curious to try your solution. If we had an idea of what it looks like on a newer boat that would be helpful. I'm glad you found a good solution. |

If you like the color insert try to find rope in the desired color. The fade factor may be much less. I originally did this with black on my 98 but it looked like a fatter rub rail. I went to the traditional three braid white and like the look. It was one of the things I had missed when I moved up from an 87 to a 98. It looks like it was factory installed and retains the classic Correct Craft feel.
