I need to replace both doghouse gaskets in my 1990 Land Yacht.

Does anyone know a source?

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried Home Depot or Lowe's, they sell a back door gasket in several sizes that's self sticking with the tape on the back. Good Luck Bill

Check with local bodyshop suppliers, most of them have model specific and generic automotive weatherstripping.

Airstream has always been pretty good about stocking older parts, not the cheapest, but I would try them.

Truck body builders and industrial hardware outfits sell seal by the foot, try them for a similar shape.

I was able to obtain the weather stripping I needed for an 83 SW thru a body shop. They had a catalog that showed the exact one.

Being in FL, I suspect you have yacht/cabin cruiser suppliers. I found the exact replacement gaskets for my dog house is such a facility.

Take a look at the JC Whitney catalog.
