My stainless bits don’t get hot in the sun. If it is 100 degrees out, the bow and stern pulpits are about 100 degrees. My steering wheel is wrapped in fancy work so my hands don’t freeze in the winter, in summer the stainless was fine.

I would not expect the rails (or any other SS parts) to be hot while sailing. I guess different story when you are stationary (at the dock or on anchor).

I’m a big stainless fan, but not so much for handrails in the summer sun. I was seriously considering stainless for my handrails as I had a friend who went that route. But when I went to admire and be inspired by his rails, I grabbed ahold of one and nearly got 2nd degree burn. The impression I got was that a hot rail is a safety concern. I’m thinking of HDPE rails (aka a Starboard equivalent) may be the way to go. While StarBoard/SeaBoard are a bit pricey, there are equivalents such as outdoor grade HDPE or UV stabilized HDPE sign boards which cost nearly half as much. - Paul E. 1981 C&C Landfall 38 S/V Johanna Rose Fort Walton Beach, FL http://svjohannarose.blogspot.com/<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsvjohannarose.blogspot.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C11db45417d9a404204a608d6967da363%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636861863682904459&sdata=3kVXRy0Oq%2BUH6hTqzZHy9or%2FrmFeLyXjhf0V%2FZUTE5A%3D&reserved=0> On Feb 18, 2019, at 10:11 PM, cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com> wrote: Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2019 21:15:43 -0500 From: Josh Muckley <muckl...@gmail.com<mailto:muckl...@gmail.com>> To: "C&C List" <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> Subject: Re: Stus-List Epoxy or not.

I think I paid $100 for each rail. Custom made to fit the original holes.
