Here's another of the neat little gizmo's I found and modified to serve my needs.
It is a quick release hold down for the forward stays on my TUUCI Top.

Not to high jack this, but GFS check out my post #287 I think my handle I got at Marine Surplus for approx. $15. Let me know if I can help.

CR, I guess I am still perplexed on the covers for the thru hull

If the corral is the same that I have seen on the Gause Built Boats it will be really NEAT. Hell it is Neat already

Ummmmmm, we will be making plugs, just in case. She has been floated already, she does float, and above the scuppers. (thank goodness. :-).

"CR, I guess I am still perplexed on the covers for the thru hull."
IT, what might be your perplextion?

As for the color, it is really weird, in pictures and when I first saw it, it has ALOT of orange to it. But, to the naked eye, it is toned down, very kinda, well Islandy.
I like it, just hope I don't have to match it. :-)

Those handles are made or sold by a Company called Premier products, you would have to see who retails or wholesales them. The Premier Mod # for that handle is #56789 7/8" oval grabrail with studs.
Here are a couple of photo's with the answers to the what are these parts question.

I used that wire on my new livewell and bilge pumps. What is it called?
The other part is for the motah mounting studs to spread the load. Don`t know the name.

Those handles are on e bay all day long. Check Great Lakes Skipper. Think I've seen them in West marine as well.

Oly- We used to have huge 4" open scuppers on all our commercial boats in Alaska. Whenever we got a heavy load (6 tons or so of fish) and we had to plug the scuppers...but they were screw in plugs. So when you fill your boat up with Girls make sure you got some good plugs ready. Another thing to consider is adding some ballast down low as I see you have been running a little top heavy on those Bahama trips
