Default Cheapo Handrails

I've been tempted to use the stainless steel bathroom handrails on my
cabintop. They are those handrails you see in Lowes or Home Depot,
pretty sturdy bent tubing with only two welds. How will they stand up
in a marine environment? They definitely long strong enough and mount
over a wide area. I just think the boat store handrails are
outrageously expensive and the bathroom ones a much less expensive and
even look better.

They may not (probably aren't) marine grade stainless. In which case,
they'll rust very quickly. If they are, then they'll work I suppose.
