Use starboard ( Pics )

H@ll just side your whole house with starboard ;D

All kidding aside that sounds like a good idea with the gunnels, only thing I am not quite sure of is if it will look too much like you covered your boat with cutting board. Does that stuff come in colors, cause I think that much of the stuff won't look to good.

You would do the same thing for interior and exterior trim on your house for long runs. ;)

Us contractors call that a "weather cut" ;) when done right and tight, they're invisible

Willy that stuff xcomes in all kinds of colors!! If he gets the off whit color, I think sand, it will match the weelcraft gel coat.

Yup, the angle-cut or weather cut's the way to go!!...important that ''strips" are SAME width...get screws close to this seam...

I'M WITH REEL, IF YOU TAKE STARDBOARD (1/2" OR 3/4")
AND MAKE A NICE PIECE WITH GROOVES IN IT LIKE A STEP PLATE AND THE MOUNT THE ROD HOLDER AND OUTRIGGER BASE ON TOP OF IT, AND SCREEW IT FROM THE BOTTOM UP SO YOU DONT SEE THE SCREWS IT WOULD LOOK GOOD.
