I know there are 2 different kinds of people: those that cant have enough cup holders and those hard core fishing types that think cup holders are gay.:you:
well with 2 small kids on the boat who always seem to be thirsty (you know how far apple juice flys when you step on a juice box?) and a wife that carries a bottle of water around like she's crossing the friggin mojave on a daily basis I had to do something.
Got these off ebay from SSI plastics ebay store, actually my mother in law bought them for my upcoming birthday which makes them all the more better.

Don't let my wife see those, she'd be pissed!
I went thru every one of those they had, trying to find a place in the boat.
Man those things look good!!
That site had good dimensions, good choices, I just couldn't find ones to fit where I needed them.
Looks great Wilson!!

Wow that is awesome!:nice:
Where did you get that seat? I like it even better. Is it removable or foldable?

its both....although the motor trims up enough to trailer without having to flip it up. see the link below for when I first put it in.

wow i like the seat. my son sits on the splashwell right there every time we go out and i am sure its not comfortable on the rear end. he just likes the smoothest seat in the boat and i can't say i blame him.

Hey Wilson
Do they interfere with the rod holders?
Where did you get them?
thanks

here's a link to where I posted them a few weeks ago....
man the rod holder almost got me....I checked and rechecked to make sure I was no where near steering cables/wires but forgot about the rod holders.. I cut the first hole and the rod holder was encroaching into the space by like 1/2" or less cutting across the top left hand corner. fortunately I cut the 4 corners of the fiberbglass out with a hole saw and I was able to push the hole saw in further and take a perfect crescent shaped piece out of the plastic tube of the rod holder, rods still fit in no problem. (if they were ss I would have been screwed.
If I had only moved them back another 1/2" or so I would have had no problem...(turns out on the port side I did not have that problem as the rod holders are not installed identical on both sides (close but not exactly)
Willy, I kind of half assed it, right now they are only screwed into the 1/4" or so fiberglass....my intention was to through bolt as I am pretty sure I can reach them from the aft hatches but I didnt have all the hardware and I had a nice supply of #10 screws. I had some free time yesterday (rare) so I just used sealant and screws. if they loosen up on me on I'll through bolt them with some nice fender washers or reinforce with some wood behind the hole.

i remember when the japanese car companies got in the mini van business in the 80's. they could not understand why a 7 passenger vehicle needed 12 cup holders. they are like electrical outlets, can you ever have too many.....
