I have a roll of the stuff the owner I bought the boat from had for my 1998 OA 440 Sundeck. The molding seems to be there just for aesthetics. With heating and cooling of the white rubber, it would work its way out of the channel and hang off the boat. My repair yard and I decided to just take it all off. It was not serving any purpose except holding water underneath the molding and looking bad. So, we have removed all of it and went about our day. All screws are water tight and with no molding on the boat, no one knows the difference.
