Denis....nope, its still there...you being a boater also, you'll recognize the mounting flange I used.
Robert....
The base plate, which I mounted on the vertical front is a marine item.
The post, which is not telescopic, is the original, I just mitered it 90-degrees near the bottom, tig-welded it back together and then powder coated it
I'll find some additional pictures here somewhere...
But the "new version table" (3 pictures below) is stainless tubing and is much more versatile and mounts on the end of the couch base. It will even swing around to a position between the seats....the top used here had been that counter extension that flipped up.
