The Bus/train/boat Cup Holder
Before the automobile cup holders, many buses and trains were built with wall-mounted cup holders. These cup holders are usually constructed by thin stainless steel plates. Some of them are covered by rubber. There are now many cup holders available which can be screwed to the walls of boats and buses and recreational vehicles.
Another popular cup holder for boats is the "drop in" cup holder. This is a round plastic item, that has a lip at the top. It requires that a hole is drilled into the boats table or console and then the unit is inserted and the lip holds it in place. These do not accommodate cups with handles.

The lighthouse, and the boat on the beach, and the two shapes
Of the woman and the man;”
