I need to replace the rub rail on my Mac. I found one in Blue Water Yachts for $75 U.S. (50 ft) Has anyone imported one and are they suitable? Cheers Ray

How long did it take? Any hints? I've looked at a lot of the previous posts. It seems like quite a task....

Hi Turtonr.
It was done by a marine shop and they said that it took three people to do it and took several hours. It was an insurance job so I wasn't onsite when it was done but supplied them with the rub rail
