Supports

This versatile handhold is an invaluable addition to a wide range of vessels. The 062 handhold is popular on boats like Solings and scows to help hiking crew reenter the boat after a capsize or for easy re-boarding from the water. Its application extends far beyond racing dinghies; it serves as an excellent grab point on the cabin tops of cruising yachts, a step-assist near the companionway, a secure hold on a transom for swimmers, or as a safety grip anywhere on deck where a traditional rail is not practical. It has drain holes to ensure water evacuates quickly, preventing mildew and keeping the grip clean. Install one or a series of them to create a secure pathway along your deck.
