Nice looking set up on your rod holders too. Did you get those custom made?
Also looking forward to close up on guide post. Thanks
I made the rod holders to fit the angle of the front and back of the boat. The back was just the standard 90 degree angle (two 45 degree cuts) and the front, if I remember correctly was a 39 degree angle. One cut at 20 degrees and one at 19 degrees. They are made out of 1 inch stainless steel tubing and coated with the stuff they use for bed liners in your truck.Quote:

Don't look at the welding job to closely. I don't consider myself a welder....but it holds. I used 2" ss flat bar, 1/4 inch thick, and bent the one end so I could bolt it to the fender. The other flat bar didn't need to be bent other than to get the angle at the top. Then I attached the 1.5" ss square tubing to it. I slid a piece of 2" pvc over the tubing to find where it needed to be welded on the flat bar and give me a 1" clearance on both sides. As you can see, I bolted the flat bar to the fender and to the frame of the bunk pad. Next I cut a piece of 2" pvc the same angle as the flat bar, gave it a couple of inches to spare, then cut the pvc as long as I needed it. Doing it this way allows the pvc to rotate if the boat brushes the pipe. Capped to finish it off and make sure to drill a hole in the top of the cap to allow the air to escape. Hope this helps and didn't confuse ya'll to much.
Nice rig you did a great job ....put my name on the list:crazy:
