Keel Guard

Good Morning .I have started a little winter product with a Valiant PT 520 . The previous owner must of received a present of black Anti foul paint for Christmas as he painted the whole hull with several coats up to the tubes .I have striped it back by hand with the help of a good friend to the original perfect white hill . I am looking for the best (cheapest)location to buy 6 foot strip of Keel guard and any other bits and pieces , Decals, Console. Windshield, I have changed the outboard to a New Suzuki Df 60 lean burn .It wont be he fastest boat in Cork Harbour but I hoping it will be as frugal as they claim .Any tips greatly appreciated . Looking forward to catching a few Cod over the Christmas break. Picture to follow

This is a few pics of Mark from specialist small craft and me fitting and testing a shield to my tender. I stuck a bit directly to a bit of hypalon and scuffed it round the yard
