wraps around the bow has a nice big dent in it and one of the mounts
is broken. Anybody know where I can get a reasonable repair for it?



You can have a replacement rail fabricated at any $hop where they weld
$tainle$$ $teel. If it truly has no function, and on a 1977 cuddy
cabin- you could easily justify not spending the money to replace it.


A shop that has expertise in welding stainless is not necessary
experienced in welding aluminum.

Eisboch (who spent hours trying to weld aluminum to steel while the
welders laughed their butts off)




You can combine them. Both Kaiser Industries did it with Military tanks
and a couple of the cookwares now attach aluminum to stainless.


Yep. But not by welding.
