[QUOTE="maintenanceguy, post: 472363, member: 24227"] I've always thought these were pretty interesting: https://www.boatstogo.com/central-console-inflatable-boat.asp They're made for inflatable dingys but something could be made for any jon boat. A Harbor Freight hydraulic tube bender and a couple of lengths of aluminum tubing and you'd have something in a few hours. Just keep in mind that dies for bending tube are different dimensions from dies for bending pipe. Either will work, you just need to know whether to buy aluminum pipe or aluminum tube. If you bent the curve at the top of the console toward you to make a grab bar over the steering wheel, it would give you something sturdy to hold on to. [/QUOTE]
