Lose some weight!! ;)








Get some stainless tube, also some fittings, or just hammer the end flat and drill for a bolt and install.
You will be fine.

That will work.
If you need tubing let me know. Stripping down two big boats at the boat yard. Tons of rail tubing.

Nooooooooooooooo...

Hey Mac, is that just one step on that ladder? Mine had only one but it was pretty darn difficult for me to climb up it so I got a 3-step extension ladder for it.
