Rod Box Inserts.....again

[2ndCurse]

I did a search and didn't find what I was looking for. I remember somebody here was making them, but can't find the info. Thanks in advance. Tom

Plenty of options ..I made a set on my previous hull...marine ply, marine stain and laminate it with clear resin for UV protection ...See pictures below of current plastics
I found a seller on ebay very reasonable price, I paid way more about a year ago..

yea I dont remember anyone ever making them except for a guy a few years ago that said he was going to make all sorts of stuff and then didnt. Although if you count it , Reelapeelin kind of finished off the ones in his V-21 with some starboard and lattice stuff, maybe thats what you are thinking?

Anyway standard solution seeems to be hit ebay and such and find a set for sale close enough to your opening preferably a hair larger and then just open up your cutouts and fit them in.

Google Flounder Pounder Marine(it might be in our Links Section)...they have a vacum-formed plastic insert some of the guys have used...

Rob's right...I made a pair of inserts from scratch of 1/4 and 1/2" Starboard...as I had plenty of rod storage elsewhere, mine weren't actually finished as rod holders, but could have easily

These aren't finished here, but I think you get the idea...would be easy to put holes in each end of the boxes to hold rods...don't even need racks installed...good luck whatever you choose...keep us posted...
