The one we had on our 620 was very nice double, 2" I believe possibly 1.5" but very well built and a high tow point grab handles, the lot. Think it was a £600 extra but could be wrong.

Give Kevin at Pacer marine a call. See what he can do.

I'd be interested to see that.
Are they forming the bends in the tube, or welding in some prefabricated ones?
