Al and Dan,

I replaced my exterior grab rails last year. West carries 5 loop grab
rails, but they weren't the same size as the ones on my A30. I ended up
having them custom made in California by a company called H & L.  They cost
about $75 each and they did a nice job. I had them made without the bolt
holes drilled because the hole spacing is not uniform and I didn't want to
enlarge the holes  in the cabintop. I sent them a sketch that I made in
ClarisWorks on my computer (Mac). I could email you the file if you also
have a Mac or send you a hard copy. I would compare it to your  boat before
using it. They may differ.

Regards,
	Bob
