Zodiac Medline III Fender End Caps

Please could anybody recommend where it's possible to source 2 end caps for a Zodiac Medline III ?
The fender itself has 3 tiers, top 2 are square and bottom is a "fin".
Many thanks
Simon

RIBase
That’s going to be a dealer only part as very specialised. Try Chas Newens. They carry Zodiac rubbing strakes (each has unique code), so may have specific trim options too. You’re going to need serial number from the boat for date of manufacture, etc.

Thanks; yes I've spoken to Chas Newen and no luck unfortunately.
The build year is 2002.

Speak to Rib Shop or similar. Often when these RIBs are retubed, then the rubbing strake will be revised. Chances are that Zodiac have a tube kit for the Medline III (assuming it used slide-on rail), but that's overkill-unless it's deteriorated elsewhere.

Any reason for those end sections to detach? Normally, the rubbing strake would simply taper. Old glue can be removed by sanding, de-grease and apply 2-part glue for new rubber strake section. Will cover the seams on the tube sponson for more protection.
