Rubber strip under tray

Recommended Posts

When did they start putting a rubber strip along the back of the boat, under the package tray and doors? My gel is all scratched/worn there from the tray moving around. Saw this picture of a 2015 and it looks like they fixed that problem at some point. Need to see if the dealer can get one of these.

Your dealer should easily be able to get the VTX grip tape for the back and I believe it started in 2013.

I sent them an email to see. It is one of those things that bugs the crap out of me every time I see it - because it has really rubbed a lot of the gel off. But somehow I always forget to figure out something to do about it after I get home.

Are you out of warranty? Mine was fixed on my vRide and then I put some hydroturf down in that area.

FWIW, that piece of grip tape for a VTX is $75 from Malibu. I'm just going to get some standard grip tape at Home Depot for $10 and cover the problem area. Problem I see with hydroturf is that it is thick and the covers already fit plenty tight.

It won't say vtx then though :tease2:
