[C320-list] ice box gasket

[Chris Descher]

Thank you.  I called Catalina and they gave me a price, but they told me that I need to measure it to tell them how many feet I need to order.  By the way, they call it part number 90313 and sell it for $1.85/foot.  No one there was able to tell me how many feet the icebox uses.  I guess that I'll go measure it, and I may try some of the other suggested alternative sources.

Chris, 
I remove them occasionally and spray with Clorox Cleanup, a product I believe to be essential on my boat, really keeps them clean an white. But I wish there was a better solution. Replacing the original black with white I thought was an improvement, but proper cleaning requires removing and not having them properly glued in is not good. Still looking for a better solution, if I find I will report.

Thanks. Same problem I'm having - bad adhesive and growing a black mold.

Chris, 
I got mine from Catalina. They no longer make the black, now comes only in white. Looks much cleaner than the black. The foam has an adhesive side that you peel the cover off before applying, I did mine two years ago and frankly the adhesive is not very good, most fall off now. My next trip to the hardware store will be to discover an adhesive that will hold but is removable for cleaning because the outsides get cruddy and there is no way to clean properly without removing.

Does anyone have a source for the 1/2" foam gasketing material that's 
installed around the trim of the icebox? Mine's in bad shape and needs to 
be replaced, and I haven't found anything available that's quite like it. 

Thanks,
