Nice I like it a lot!!
 
Thanks
 
What boat is the chrome bar from? I'd love to get rid of that strap for a bar. I always feel like the strap is gonna break or pull out!
 
I really like the aluminum grab handles on the AR195's from like '15 thru '18 or so. They're a nice large-ish square shape and are CNC'd aluminum not tubular chrome. Nice modern look to them with a good feel in the hand.

You are very welcome! Anytime
 
You ream the 2 inner holes to 5/16", fits right in there... The handle covers the outer holes up completely, so a little 5200 in the outer holes to prevent leaking is needed. Edit* FWIW I picked up some some big fender washers to distribute the pull on the backside of the fiberglass.
