New Grab Handle

I saw this guy's ad over on another site. He makes and sells a wild looking grad handle. So, I thought I'd see if he could make me a matching handle to my Eddie Marine dash handle for the swim platform. I don't have it, yet. But, he sent a pic from a cell phone. This guy could be a great resource for custom work. His name is Kevin Butler and you can reach him at kevin_z99@hotmail.com.

Pic 2: Dash handle

I think I need one of those, it looks great. Is that using the same bolt holes as the original handle?

Yes, I sent him the specs of the stainless handle. It was $65 shipped! He can do any design you want. Plus he's quick. He had this done one day after I paid him.

I like it! Post a installed pic, it should look very nice with all that polished hardware on the transom.

I received the handle, but discovered that I did not take into account the large marks the old handle would leave in the rub rail once removed. I've made some changes to the design of the mounting bases and Kevin will make me another handle next week. Stay tuned.
