Swim Platform boarding handle location???
Q,
I have 2 locations I'm looking at for mounting a 10" grab handle for the swim platform/boarding ladder on the Talon. 1st is upper on the engine hatch, which will give more reach, and 2nd is lower with less reach but is mounted to the hull deck... The engine hatch is thick enough for the handle to be mounted to, I'm just trying figure out which will work best.
Thanks,

I think the lower mount, blends in better, Id stay off the hatch

Also looks like there are snaps on the engine hatch??? So having the handle above your snaps would no doubt interfere with any cover that uses those snaps, unless of course, the cover was modified after the handle is in place.

Don't go too low.
My boats rear handle is too low, if you are in the water it is useless. I have a rope tied along the back pad to get out of the the water and back into the boat.
