Hi all,
I see from peoples' photos that some of you have a really nice stern rail that comes around to the sides of the boat and attaches to the lifelines.
Our C22 just has a rail on the transom that really does little other than hold the mast while it's horizontal on the hard.
Were those stern rails introduced in a later model, or were they all custom built?

One of the later specs pages (must be 1979 vintage as it mentions the anchor locker on the C26) shows the C22 bow pulpit, stern rails, lieflines and stanchions as options.
Doesn't mention a short version of the stern rail as standard equipment tho. Perhaps you only got the full wrap around stern rails with the lifleine option ?

Well, gee... I want one!
You can see from my picture that yours is very different.
Do you think yours is strong enough to sit on? As you can imagine, ours can't take much weight at all. We need a place to hang on when pulling up our outboard, but this rail ain't it. We usually end up holding on to the backstay. Of course, our Honda 9.9 is probably a bit of overkill too.

Matt,
If you're coveting a full 'wrap-around pushpit (I believe that's the correct name for the stern railing you're referring to) contact Dave who cut up a C-22 last week. See topic Parting out a Chrysler.... His nick on here is DDB.
I got many of the hardware parts but the pulpit and pushpit were still there, along with the full set of lifelines.
