There used to be someone on Ebay selling that material by the foot. I don't see the listing anymore. I ended up using the gasket from an external air cleaner off a Mack truck at work. It worked perfect. The size is 3/8" x 3/8".
I know, not a lot of help :roll: .
Boats are to be made of wood, otherwise, God would have grown fiberglass trees.

I'm leaving for two days tomorrow but I'll post a picture soon. Mine is so compressed down I can't tell what it should look like.
