Hey guys just picked up this beautiful v20 acutally from a member of this site. Looking to get a pair of rod mounts for the gunnals doesn't seem to be much room. Anyome have a certain one they use?

Welcome aboard. Most any type will do.

Welcome to the site - you'll be glad you joined. Lots of experience represented here - these guys have helped me through some difficult repairs and are just ornery enough to be a lot of fun.

I use Scottys - very strong plastic, bracket/receptical mounts on inside vertical surface of gunnel and holder inserts and locks in. Adjustable horizontally & vertically, comes out for storage. They are fully adequate for Salmon & Sturgeon in the northwest. I can't recall if I had to put backing behind the fiberglass, but would be a good idea to screw through into a piece of rot resistant wood or Starboard. If you're not familiar with fiberglass, be sure to drill out the holes big enough so you don't cause cracks.

She is at the canvas shop now getting a black enclosure. Thinking about installing A fish on sports arch also. Anyone here use one?

Another NJ member? Cool. There are lots of us here. I usually go out via Sandy Hook and troll the Tin Can grounds or the Shrewsbury Rocks, but have been known to trailer to Forked River to go out via the Barnaget inlet. There are several here from that area also.
