I have this white rail on my 1999 4600 that isn't so white. I'm wondering if/how I could replace this with new stuff or if i should just cover it up with vinyl. I'm not sure how big of a job it is to replace or if I should even replace it since it's not broken, it's just not the best looking part of the boat.
You can, of course, replace them. It should be one of the Taco rub rails. But before doing that, you might want to try to polish/compound them. If it doesn't work, try wet sanding.
Did you ever figure out how to replace the vinyl insert? I have been searching for 5 years. Only thing on the boat that is ugly from weather. Taco corp. has sent me multiple wrong size samples.

i went a cheap easy route. I bought some 3M 1080 car wrap film that matched the color (roughly) and cut it into 3/4" strips and just covered the ugly rubber. Its been on for months and no issues. Its just a cosmetic bandaid but it made the boat look much better.
Thank you Sandiegoguy, I like this site. My wife and I are liveaboards on our Maxum and loving it. I have extensive knowledge of the 46 as I have done many improvements/upgrades. Feel free to ask us me a question. We are Moored at the Bremerton Yacht Club, Washington.
