Possible sources for rub rails for Potter 15's.

1. I own potter #471 and replaced my rub rails from
WEFCO Ruibber Manufacturing Canago Park CA. Their website
has all of their products in same size profile on view.

Their toll free number is 1 800 854 1220. Person on the
order desk was most helpful when I made inquires after viewing the
website catalog. Service was great and am most pleased with the
product.

2. TACO is another brand of rub rails and is sold by West Marine.

I replaced he original wooden rubrail on my 1967 P14 withTACO black
vinyl rubrail that takes a vinyl insert, but I used three-strand
nylon rope instead of the vinyl. The rubrail fit perfectly on the
type of cabin- to-hull joint used on the early Potters. Your boat may
be different.

For much less maintenance, I recommend black rub rail instead of the
white that IM uses.

3. I had WWP #707 and I had to replace the rub rail. the only place I
could find the rubbr rub rail that fit was Hamilton marine.

They have it in white and black. It was over a year ago but I think the
part number was F-113 or F-115, I cant remember (the F was for
flexiable)
