spray rails

[Garry Wright]

Some of you will remember that the floats for FOKM were damaged nearly 2
years ago and have been in repairs since. The chap doing the repairs is
at the spray rail stage and considers the amount of bending and
stretching of the material provided by Murphy to get to the compound
curve to be excessive and beyond any reasonable requirement. He also
says that more recent designs have the spray rails vertical, keeping the
spray more confined than the originals would.

1. Does anyone have comment on the amount of work to make these fit and
the tools etc required to get them there? How was it handled on float
kits that people have built? We don't have the instruction manual for them.

2. Does anyone have comment on the vertical rail suggestion?

Hi Thanks for the input on the rails. They perform great , but I was concerned about docking & the fact that I`ve never seen another float with the outside railsPutting the saw away for now ,probably falls into the category of aint broke. don`t fix. Bill
