ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a grab bar for bathing vessels. The grab bar has a substantially sinusoidal shape in the horizontal (X) and vertical (Y) coordinates, and is twisted approximately 90.degree. in the (Z) coordinate. In a preferred embodiment, the grab bar is mounted at one end to the deck of the bathing vessel, and the other end which is oriented at approximately a 90.degree. angle is mounted to the interior vertical wall of the bathing vessel. In alternate embodiment, the grab bar may be mounted on any two walls which are substantially perpendicular to each other on the bathing vessel to provide a range of angles at which the bather may hold onto and support himself relative to the walls of the bathing vessel and the grab bar.
