My boat is a Catalina 30, but my question is more generic. The C-30 has teak hand rails on coach top. Mine are pretty weathered and the port side is held together with epoxy. My crew sometimes complain the rails are not much help and uncomfortable to sit on. Another C-30 on my dock removed the rails and repainted the deck, and installed a small stainless hand hold forward. Looks great.
Opinions, please. There's lots of things to grab onto besides these teak rails. I am thinking of removing them. But honestly I am nearly always in the cockpit so I don't know. How useful are those rails?
