Support loop stanchions installed on each side of mast

Does anyone know of a source for support loop stanchions installed on each side of the mast (not sure of the exact description), which you lean against and supports you from behind when you're at the mast? Thanks.

Granny bars? Where are you located? I imagine that anyone who bends and welds stainless should be able to make those. In our case, white water marine made dorade vent guards, they do good work to your measurements and ship (we are in NY and they are in Michigan I think).

Mast pulpits, granny bars, sometimes called sissy bars but always a good idea to have if room allows and if fabricating be sure they are high enough for good support when leaning on.

Check with the Pearson424 owners forum. Periodically a few owners put in an order with an outfit that has all the necessary info to fabricate them for the 424.
