    That was awesome! I have a center console that is almost impossible to find a grab bar for. And anything that would fit is ridiculously pricey. Typically around $400-$600. That’s crazy. I’m definitely going to do this. One guy said he did it with the EMT pipe and then sprayed it with the truck bed liner to waterproof it. Pretty slick. Thanks for sharing!

    Great job! Can you explain how the 90 degree elbows are attached to the other part?

    How did you get the rail to stay in the fittings. If you lift up doesn’t it just go out of place of the base or do it screw in place? I want to do this but my fear is it just goes out of place if I lift it or when my boat hits a wave.

      I attached all of the fittings to the tube and then held it in place and marked screw holes. Easier if you have a helper.

    I have the same set up. Are you saying the two marks are 28 inches apart? 14" on each side of the center line and make the bends inward?

    Hello, I have been looking to purchase some of this tubing or parts involved. I’ve looked and have not been able to find. Are there any links or keywords that have been working for anyone else making this? Thanks in advance

      I actually just went down to the local Marine Hardware store. I did not get them online so unfortunately do not have links

      But did it come to get there or what , because 7/8 fittings dont go into the same 7/8 elbow or tees, did you get the base bigger?

    Great stuff. I'm definitely going to watch some of your other videos. I just did this project on a 19. But all Carolina Skiffs need this rail when you're rocking and rolling. The windshield and grab rail project is a must when those items get broken off. ua-cam.com/video/r2gH7Xh_4tM/v-deo.html
    Your video gave me all the info I needed to go at this like a pro. Thanks for posting.
