[QUOTE="thill, post: 519255, member: 4972"] Unfortunately, that outer edge is pretty much flush. If you set something there and a wake goes by, you will probably lose it. Believe it or not, those gunnels were originally carpeted. Look at this: [ATTACH type="full"]122465[/ATTACH] WHY would anyone put carpet on the gunnels of a boat? I plan to sand and paint those gunnels when I get a chance. That will be a lot easier to keep clean than carpet. If you see the boat up close, it's still a beater. If I keep fixing stuff, eventually it won't be, but then I might have to sell it and start over, so I should probably take my time on the upgrades. :giggle: [/QUOTE]
