I have a 2000 larson 330 cabrio.
Trying to fix my cockpit cover, the rubber seal used to secure cover to windshield is dry rotted and ripped/falling apart. It is designed to push down into a track, does NOT use snaps (wish it did).
I can not locate this component anywhere, partially because i dont know what it is called, possibly welting, but not sure.
OEM was ameritex/taylor made and can find no reference to this antiquated way of securing canvas/cover. It is not the sure seal advertised on their site, it is much older and based on what a PIA it is, cant imagine it being used for long.
Hoping to find a source for this so i can replace on cockpit cover and side curtains.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Have you tried greatlakesskipper.com? They have a lot of old OEM stuff for Larson boats. It's a long shot, but worth a look.

I ended up ordering material from Ameritex directly - was about a $1 a foot. However it does not fit perfectly into the track system on my 2001 boat, it is a bit of a different design. Works but is not ideal as you have to force it in groove and groove not exactly designed for the material. I can send pics if helpful.

If you could send or post pics that would be great, I emailed them, they want $7.00 a foot. Here is what they are peddling.
