[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 521041, member: 21536"] I have a thought about the down rigger box shown in your photo. In keeping with Still Afloat's thoughts about increasing the space from the transom, you could make the box smaller. Additionally you could make it higher to be even with the top of the gunnel. For added rigidity, you can tie it into the gunnel with a piece of angle on the under side of the top of the box. An alternative could be a 6" wide piece of aluminum bent to fit and tied to the floor and gunnel (I know, most of us don't have that laying around, but who knows). Anyway, sort of like this: [ATTACH alt="DR Box.jpeg"]123349[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
