Anyone out there have access to a splash rail that I could use to replace the one on my boat? Should I have one custome made. Thanks

Use the one you have as a pattern with similar materials and then use sander to round edges and make look like other one, redrill and mount. Or consider making two new ones so that they match. Good luck

That's my suggestion too. Make a new one. It most likely is made of white oak. If you try to salvage one from another boat it could be more effort and time and end up having decay, splits, nicks, in it, ect... Not to mention trying to find a boat to canabilize.
