That's great news to hear. I really prefer the shorter risers, and that makes me more eager to upgrade now that I see this. Did you give Scott the measurements that you wanted or does he have a standard short stand?
He makes a shorter riser for pontoons, so I had him use that riser and make a longer cross-bar for six holders. I think it will work real good for the smaller boat. I have two four-pole rigs on my larger boat---really like them.
