So you bought a boat and you’re now discovering just how important the handle is.

There are few built environments in the world that contain as many opportunities for cursing the lack of a handle as a boat – overhanging cupboards, under hanging cupboards, hidden doors, hatchways – you name it, it all needs handles. And out on the water, if one or two of those handles have gone astray – well, they didn’t invent distress flares for nothing. Nor yet stainless steel handles boat fittings, which have been purpose built to withstand the unique stresses and strains associated with maritime living.

First up, then, a look at the handles you didn’t even know existed until you bought your pride and joy. They (that’s all the old salts, or is that soaks, who don’t want any more land lubbers coming along and spoiling their party) say that a boat owner only gets two happy days out of his or her craft – the day he or she buys it, and the day some other poor sucker buys it off them. That, the natural cussedness of long time sailors aside, is probably because they never found out that you can get all sorts of neat stainless steel handles boat fitted, whose one and only purpose is to aid human movement in and around the thing.

That’s right – enterprising companies like Topline (the boating equivalent of Audi) have long been purveying what they call “grab handles” – simple U shaped stainless steel handles designed to be fitted anywhere that a person might need something to grab hold of. Refraining (well, OK, obviously not refraining) from mentioning that on a newbie’s boat that would be everywhere, we have to remark that the stainless steel grab handle is about the most useful maritime invention this side of a compass. You know those knobbly handles they have on buses, so that standing passengers can hold on to something that might stop them careering into the laps of all the seated folk? The stainless steel handles boat designed, of which grab handles are the foremost example, are exactly like that – only a lot cooler.

There’s a whole range of other boating intended stainless steel handles to be had – handles built into cupboards, doors and hatches; boarding handles (that’s the modern equivalent of a pirate’s hook, oo aar)… pretty much any kind of handle, all done up in stainless steel for the very good and obvious reason that normal metal rusts quick and boats are always wet.

As with anything these days, the stainless steel handle boat fitting, no matter what actual type, size or make you’re after, can be found for outstanding prices right here on the good old Internet. Whether you’re running a brand spanking new greyhound-shaped yacht, or an old clunker, you’ll find everything you need at the click of a mouse.
