Windshield Bottom Trim / Gasket

[Zbosco]

Hi Everyine! I have an old 14 foot runabout that I am restoring and I need to find a replacement rubber bottom trim / gasket for the old curved windshield. Something that will take 1/4in plex! Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks to everyone for all the great information.

many glass and window shops have the rubber seal in rolls, you can buy by the foot. it may not be perfect, but better than nothing. found this, many types

This is the original old curved windshield deck gasket by Taylor that fits their old curved windshields commonly used up to the 70's. Taylor Made was the standard small craft windshield in the 60's and 70's. But it won't take a piece of 1/4" plexy without the aluminum frame on it.

Check out FOREANDAFTMARINE.COM. call them to see if they still carry it. Any Taylor distributor should be able to get it for you.

Shipwreck, the moderators ask that you don't put direct links to other retailers even if the specific product is not sold on iboats. Iboats pays for this server and BB, so they make the rules.

Beware the POOF button....
