    1987 Aluminum rub rail

    Yes, I've seen that profile. I went with a semi rigid rail with Insert. I sealed the face with 4200 and drove the screws in with butyl tape. It's not original to the style but neither are my race sails and electronics. Thank for the information

    Used Sails

    I have a set from a 32-3. JIB and Main. They are original I think. Still in great shape. I upgraded to UK cruising/racing sails a few years ago. I have no idea what they are worth. No tears, we'll taken care of.

    off season charging batteries onboard with a solar panel

    Eric, I bought a solar panel with a trickle charger built in on Amazon for about $60. I mount it to the rear rail and run it all winter. You might need a reverse pole adapter. I bought one just in case. My batteries remain 100% all season and they stay in the boat.
