Barbour Plastics in Massachusetts manufacturers rubrails. They have some where you can put a rope insert in. I am not sure if they will sell to you unless you are in the business however. If not, try Defender Industries in Connecticut. They carry a fair amount of items there.

The Euros use polly rope in special welded in line guides , and use a turnbuckle to tighten it.

Works great.

IF you have a hard time finding the underneath part, a second choice is fenders strung on a STRONG (spectra?) line .

Put 10 or 15 on a side with no space between and coming alongside anything is a snap.

Have a look at Vetus. Page 152 in thier catalogue. There is also a website which can be found by googling.
