Clarks rubber, caravan parts shops, eBay shops or any good rubber hose shop. Even ship chandlers for the same product at inflated prices.

You will find Grippy Rubber Products, Unit 5/28 Vore street, Silverwater phone 02 98989688 very helpful.
Grippy also have a free catalogue and a big range.
Do you know the brand or make of windows the seal is needed for? eg Beclawat or Qualicraft...... many of these old time manufacturers in Australia are no longer in business.... unfortunately.

Thanks yowie, dont know the maker of the windows, the boat is about early eighties or late seventies. built in melbourne by savage. allthough a fellow has a mottle 33 sydney build and she has the same profile window.
cheers ramona , I will give clark rubber go .
first is to get a sample section out and temp seal and then start searching.

regards james
