Maybe I can help. As part of the process of rebuilding my 1980 CC, I decided to replace the plastic rodboxes but did not want the rectangular plastic boxes being sold by Flounder Pounder Marine. Did the best next thing…made a mold out of the old plastic trapezoidal original rod boxes and I should be popping my first new set of fiberglass rod boxes next week. I will take pictures and post them and will figure out what’s the best price I could sell them for. I can probably even make copies of the original rod holders in either teak or starboard. Pass it on to other members.

you sound like a real fabricator. I cant wait to see them, i have old and cracked rodboxes that do not even match the color of the boat. i really dont use the rod boxes for what they are for ;D, but would like it to look a little better. Just keep me updated and tell me what you would want for them, I have a 1989 v-20.

thanks,

Fishbonejr

Hammer for you, yes I can. However I would need a template of the transom curve and angle and it would be in aluminum, not glass. Same for the hardtop although it add lots of weight to an otherwise agile craft. Will also post pictures of my new custom full transom and bracket with dive platforms. By the way, I don’t post a lot, but log-on regularly and always learn from you guys. Thanks!

No, it just took the measurements, made a template and had the bracket custom built by an outfit (A & J Marine Welding, Inc.) that fabricates them in Miami.
