Sailfish Handrails

 21 Feb 23:

We received an order for a set of handrails for a Super Sailfish, made of cypress. I thought I had a set made but checking the parts pile I discovered that I had cut blanks to make a set, but that was as far as I got. What we did have was a set made from pine and a vintage set made by the manufacturer out of mahogany. I sanded the old varnish off the mahogany set with 120 grit sandpaper on a DeWALT 20V random orbital sander, and they look great. The buyer was given the option of a refund, waiting for the new set to be cut,  or the pine, or the mahogany. They selected the mahogany.
