We have a problem with the rub rail coming out of the track.  It seems like it has stretched over the years on our 1988.  It pops out where there are some dents in the metal channel, so about 4 times a year I have to put it back in.  I too would be interested in a source for the channel and how best to replace damaged sections of the channel.  Once again, the price of membership is a bargain.

Catalina Direct appears to carry the channel as well as the vinyl on its site (www.catalinadirect.com).

Steve and others:
Did you replace the rubrail because of damage or wear?

Guys, Susan & D :  The factory carries both the aluminium channel and the vinyl rub rail.  Don't know if Catalina direct or the factory gives the best price - you may want to check before buying !?
