Stainless mounting rails and clamps

[VogonPoet]

Has anyone seen a Solar Panel mounting system (bars, clamps, etc.) available in stainless steel?

Basically, I'm looking for the aluminum components used for terrestrial installations, but in stainless.

In a marine environment, you'll want 316 SS, not 304.

I'm finding that this stuff really doesn't exist in stainless, probably due to cost.

Has anyone used Unirac's dark or mill finish anodized hardware in a salt water environment with decent results? Realizing of course that time (exposure) is the biggest factor.

I've been musing about some alternative approaches. I've not used either of these, and I'm not sure I'd choose either, but when I get to where I'm mounting panels, I'll certainly consider their approaches.
