Ok, I'm all proud of myself so I thought I would share :-)

When out fishing it seems that the unused rods are always in the way so I wanted a holder up by the bimini where they wouldn't interfere with our efforts. Still, the boat is used for family activities quite a bit so I didn't want something permanent, ugly or expensive.

My solution was to graft some heavy duty suction cups onto a cheap bulkhead mount rod holder and stick it onto the side window when necessary. I already had the suction cups but they only cost about $9 on Amazon. Couple that with a $16 rod holder and for a total of $25, some scrap hardware and a few hours of effort I now have some good, temporary rod storage. I haven't tried it yet but it seems plenty solid. I'll report back if there are any design hang ups that I find when using it.
