[StartQuote] Coming along nicely Bruce! The grab rails on PTs 103-138 were 1" round brass along with brass stanchions. After that they went with 1" x 1 1/4" oak rails with cone shaped teak stanchions. Except for the rails on top of the chart house which fit into the stanchions with the drilled boss for mounting the forward life lines. The port aft rail stanchions had the cone tops cut out to fit the round bar (not shown in the following image). Here's a few views of them: [image]http://www.pt103.com/images/asst/elcoGrabRailStanchions.jpg[/image] PTs 314-367 didn't come from Elco fitted with armor. The chine guard was 4 1/2 x 2. The top tapered 1 to 3 1/2 at the outside. [EndQuote]
