Subject: [Public-list] toe rail


As you may remember on July 4th my toe rail was cracked during a raft up.
Everyone at the club thought it could easily be epoxed back together.  I
took the cracked part off recently and discovered it was being held on by
two dabs of 5200 and is nothing more than a mere splintered hunk of junk
that I personally think would fall off with any amount of a tiny bump while
docking.  So, I'm opting to replace about 3 feet of toerail.  Does anybody
know where I can get the teak and how to go about it.  I know I will have to
remove my jib track.  The toe rail does not have pop rivots in it.
Everything has screws in it so I assume I can just replace stuff with the
same screws.  I'm pretty handy with tools and woodworking.  I think it has
to do with being a surgical nurse for the past 30 years!  I really think I
want to take a stab at it myself and then if it looks like I'm out of my
league get the proper help.
