Where can i get these from??

Hi
Just wondered if anyone knew of anywhere i could get some wear patches which go on the tubes to stop them from wearing away should people sit on the side (and to make the tubes look neater!!!) Also im looking for a rather chunky bit of plastic to go on the bow where the anchor goes over just to stop any wear!! (i've seen these fitted on alot of ribs!!)

Many thanks

Phill

We`re looking at some wear patches, but it seems like too much hard labour with all the prep and everything, and we dont have anyone near us to take the boat to get it done for us. Has anyone painted them on with hypalon paint? Grey tubes, black painted patches.

This may seem a "daft southerner" answer, but Humber at Hull aren't a million miles away - couple of hours down the A1 ?

Or talk to Paul Tilley on this forum - he's got a wide range of fabric in stock and is very helpful.
