Reversing the Stateroom Steps Handrail


Before and After on Jack Robert 37VT17
This simple 15 minute job flips the handrail 180°.  The major benefit of doing this is that it positions the handrail better to help someone going up the stairs. 
A second benefit is that it makes installing an underway floorboard easier.

The first step is to remove the bolt holding each end of the handrail.  The top bolt is accessible via the compartment underneath the helm station.  The lower bolt is in the engine room.  Next, rotate the handrail 180°.  Finally, reinstall the two bolts.
