Nabble is a PITA
Here are some pics.
Westmarine mount is temporary.
The GB 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" rails are 11 7/8” apart - out to out.
My new rails will extend past the useless rub rail.
But -They will not extend past the top of the transom.
It will be manual.
The stops are simple 1/4” aluminum bolts at the bottom of the rails.
