Anyone know what type/size Rub Rail originally was installed on these? I have a 25ft boat.

When I rebuilt my old Yukon Delta, the original rub rail was flimsy aluminum. I replaced it with a tough pine 2x2.

Should be on the builder's plate IF there is one.

I never carried more than 4, but I probably had half a ton in modifications. A lot depends on how fast you want to go.

Have a cracked head AQ130d 1977. Where can I find a replacement? Or better yet, i have a 280 outdrive.
will a chevy motor work?
Or mount up to the outdrive?
