Kent Blair fabricates replacement handrails for an Alcort Super Sailfish using 3/4-inch thick cypress stock.Watch The process begins by cutting the wood to 41-inch lengths and ripping the boards to a width of 1 5/8 inches.1:02 Using a factory-original handrail as a template, the shape is traced onto the blanks.2:00 A jigsaw removes the corners and cuts out the handholds, while a router with a round-over bit softens the edges that a sailor grips.2:41 The bottom surface remains flat and square for deck mounting.3:28 After sanding with 120-grit discs, the rails are ready for finishing.3:44 When installing, old fastener holes in the deck should be filled with thickened epoxy before drilling new ones.4:28 Fasteners, typically number 10 screws at 2 1/2 inches long, must be offset toward the center of the rail ends to ensure they bite into the structural wood beneath the deck.4:50
