1982 Checkmate Sportfire Questions

[Figz]

I know that at one time this boat had cup holders mounted on the floor of the boat in the middle of the rear bench seat. I have also seen people have cup holders in the storage wells for the passenger and driver. Does anyone out there have any 3D model files that I could 3D print, or know a good place to get some?

Does anyone have a good website or know a place where I can find a replacement grab handle for the passenger side? I was looking at Amazon, but I am not a big fan of how cheap they all seem. The mounting holes are still there in the dash from where the old one used to be.

I imagine that grab handle was identical to the one on my Eluder. So, it was a black strap with two metal ends holding it to the dash. I was always planning to replace it with a glove box, but never got around to it. There are glove box kits, or there were when I was thinking about doing the replacement

Thanks for the info! I will take a look at that. To be honest, I think a strap would be nice just as something to hold on to. A few passengers have commented to me about the lack of an "oh-shit" handle, for lack of a better word!
