[QUOTE="RiverBottomOutdoors, post: 164522, member: 3912"] Hey, red. Thanks for checking out the thread. I'm not going to fab the actual rod holder, just the bar. If you look closely at the drawing you'll see one drawing shows the bars moved forward towards what should be the middle of the boat and another that shows the bars towards the back. The bar will.slide on the rails and lock into position. Holders mounted on the stern would mean that the rods would be a long way from where the seats will be mounted and will be hard to get to. With the split bar I'll have 2' of clearance between when they are deployed forward. That way I can get to the back of the boat. I also like to keep the bars low relative to the floor of the boat. For me, taller bars get in the way of the hook set (I don't fish circle hooks). Hope all that makes sense. ;-). Thanks for sharing your ideas. Its nice to get different perspective Take care, [/QUOTE]
