One hand for the boat
New grab rail kits make safety easy
Solid and folding grab rails you can install today
Moving around on a boat underway can be tricky, but it can be safer with good, strong grabs ready and waiting.
If your boat has one or two places where a new grab would come in, well, handy, we’d like to introduce our new suite of DIY kits. No drilling required, no need to bend tubing, kits come with all the ocean-grade stainless steel components you need to install quickly and easily.

Grab rail kits
Safety won’t wait. If you slip, or your boat moves underfoot, are you confident your hand will reach something solid and reliable?
If adding a grab rail or two would give you more peace of mind, check our our new DIY kits. We offer a variety of options to help you add a grab just about anywhere you have tubing. Choose the tubing diameter and mount type that suits you best, and we’ll send you the pieces you need to install without having to hire a professional.
Each grab rail kit contains:
- 1 x 3′ grab rail (your choice of a patented 3′ GemLock folding strut OR a 3′ length of 316 stainless tubing in your chosen size) Just cut to length and install.
- 2 x Gemini Marine Products rail mounts (your choice of sliding or split side mounts OR concave post mounts)
- 2 x eye ends in the same size as your chosen tubing
- All kits are priced at a discount on buying the components separately
Grab rails can be installed inboard or outboard of frame/tubing. They can be installed either outside/around canvas or through it by cutting a small hole in the canvas where the post on the rail mount will be and feed post through the hole. See our installation guide for more information.
Pro tip: Choose carefully!
While our grabs can be placed on tubing just about anywhere, care is needed in choosing the right rail mounts for the job. Please consider:
- Sliding side mounts WILL NOT slip around bends in tubing. If you need to place your mounts inside a bend, please choose a kit with split mounts.
- If the grab will be placed either on top of the roof of a dodger/bimini or overhead under the roof, please choose a kit with concave post mounts. This will enable the simplest installation and cleanest lines for your canvas.

Best Mounts Period!
These are the best way we have found to mount solar panels and other accessories. These mounts work GREAT for mounting solar panels and accessories on any type of boat! They save us time and money for our customers and look great doing it!
Response from Gemini Marine Products
Thank you Kurt! We’re so pleased to help you get more solar on more boats.
Exactly what I needed
Little on expensive side
Response from Gemini Marine Products
We’re so glad they work for you, and thank you for letting others know. We really appreciate it.
Overall Good
Excellent product, a little pricey but they have it. Only downside was the import duty and taxes are not done at checkout so be prepared to pay for this.
Response from Gemini Marine Products
We’re so glad you are happy with your mounts – we love photos if you care to show us how you used them. All the best and happy sailing.
How big a drill bit can I use?
can I use a 1/4″ dia bit?
Response from Gemini Marine Products
Thank you so much for the review. To answer your question, the DrillSteady is designed to take a 9/64 drill bit. If you need something larger, we recommend you use this as your guide hole. All the best and good luck!
Side rail mount
This worked perfect for attaching to our rail. We attached a stainless steel flag pole to it.
