Good custom alumiminum work.
I want to get a 1 inch or 1/4 inch aluminum grab rail made for my boat bow to attach to the hardtop. Want it to have 3 attachment points, and 2 bolts per bolt plate. I'm think a bent piece of rail with the attahment points welded on like flanges with 2 mounting bolts.
Put a sample picture at the photo board on this link:

I really want to have somebody come to my place, take the measurements, then bring it when its done. But will drag the boat to some place if I need to.
Who does this kind of stuff?
Re: Good custom alumiminum work.
Any metal fabricator with tube forming equipment should be fully capable of making the rail.
I'm not really sure if one center leg and 2 crews per flange is going to be robust enough with aluminum tubing. I would suggest two legs in the middle and 3 mounting holes per flange. You might consider stainless steel.
If you could take your own measurements, there's a number of companies the build T-tops for saltwater boats that would make it for you.
Good luck.
