You know, that little stainless piece that protects the stem of a runabout. I've tried the usual, Jamestown, Brown, West. Do people usuallt fab these uo or can they be purchased. Also the ss strips that protect the sides of a transom.
Many thanks in advance

I have these made locally. The price is about 2/3 s of the price given in the link above. I have Walrus Machine do it here in Seattle. It's a fairly straight forward process. However, it is common that we might do a "try and fit" before the final welds are done. He is a boat oriented welding and machine shop. Given your location, you may not be able to find this kind of specialist where you are.

The guy in the link has been around for quite a while and my guess is that his cutwaters would be fine.
