Does anyone know where I could find a bow rail?

If you decide to have one made I have a lot of extra s.s fittings, send me a PM. They are quality pieces that have never been used. I decided against installing one on mine.

Hey Ridge, if Wolf is not interested, I might be interested in new hardware for my bow rail. all of the fittings are fine except the two closest to the windshield. They are pitted and split. Shoot me a pm if you have those parts with your price.

Thank you for the offer, go ahead and offer them to Nipper. I have plenty of time to worry about a bow rail. I have a lot of work to do before I will need one.

Thank you
Doug

I took my bow rail off my 1975 V20, Has to cut in half to move any were, They are huge when off the boat.
I gave it to Chumbucket and he never ended up using it, He has offered it before if some one wanted to pay shipping, Just need to buy a V fitting to put it back together. I am msure he still has it for the taking. Its stainless

What is the outside diameter on your rail? All of the fittings I have are for 1" OD. All fittings are cast stainless made in china but are good quality, electropolished to a mirror and have good sturdy looking set screws.. New old stock. If anyone is interested I will let it go for cheap. They all came from Bosun's Supply back in 2002 and I only gave $7 for the T-fittings and $9 for the bases which are round. 6-60degree T's, 2-90degree T's, 2-45degree bases,4-60degree bases,4 90degree bases. I think I had plans to make my own swim step or something which is why all the 90 degree fittings.

No private messages can be sent today. I don't know why.
Wolf, if you are interested in making your own rail, as I was, these fittings will probably still be here wrapped in plastic in the original shipping box. The 1" fittings I have won't work for the stock size rail. I'm pretty sure the rails were only 3/4" from the factory.
