Re: How to install surface mount rod holders
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			CP2...that's a tough one...determine the height above the gunwale you want the rod-holder to be, then attach a plate that tall to the inside of the gunwale, then attach the rod-holder to that....the plate can be of stainless, Starboard or other, depending on your resources(it'd be 3/4" Starboard for me), but you need to get some height above the gunwale some way...backing plate behind the plate... 
 
Hope this helps... :)...
