The association had a batch of the hatch weatherstripping produced during the '90's. Stuff must be custom made. The supply of weatherstripping has been exhausted for some time -- six or seven years? -- Someone asked about it a year or so ago and we requested feed back on who else was interested. (The minimum order is substantial to cover set up costs.) Unfortunately, no interest was expressed. :(Quote:

Maybe if you'd kept the Edge Seal alive on the front page - with the Manual and Burgee and Rudder Post Bearing - even if you didn't have any left,
but had a message set up for those who really wanted the seal, and wanted to deal - it might have happened. Might still be happening.
I wonder how many Correspondents here have any idea what the "rudder post bearing" IS?
Righhht! not until the rudder breaks!
Somebody look at McMasterCarr EDGE GRIP SEALS on page 3438 and 3439.
If you do find something, the rubber HAS to be EPDM.
The vinyl edge grip with the round rubber bulb top might be a decent substitute.
But it ain't cheap.
If you have to stick EPDM to itself or to the boat use
