Is there someone that can point me in the right direction to get some plastic to replace a windsurfboard centreboard slot gasket.
Looking for something similar to icecream container plastic in thickness and rigidity, will require a piece about 1mtr long and 90mm wide.

It is rubber not a plastic?

Maybe a sheet of a 0.5mm ish white rubber from Clark Rubber or similar joint, cut to size and glued in with contact cement (like Kwik Grip) and a slit cut down the middle?

Or, depending on model of board, some of them are classics for retro racing and replacements are available so google the part for that board? I know you cna get them for Mistral Equipe and Windsurfer One Design as they were the main racing one designs
