Hello. I recently purchased an outboard powered 2026 Ranger Tug R23. It came equipped with the solar panel mounted on top of the two 1" OD stainless steel tubular roof racks.
I would like to add two more similar style, but slightly taller roof racks that go over top of the solar panel. My purpose is to carry a dinghy up there from time to time without damaging the solar panel.
I would like to use the same grade and wall thickness for the 1" stainless steel tubing that was used to make the roof racks that came with the boat.
Can you please tell me what grade and wall thickness you used to make the roof racks for my boat?
Thanks so much, Davebern.
