250 Sportsman questions

[jasoncooperpcola]

I have an 86 250 Sportsman. Does anybody know where i can get the 2 decals for the side that say 250 Sportsman? Also has anybody ever got water in the very forward compartment under the water tank? The only way i can see that water got in there was over. And that means over a foot of water in the boat! How well does the livewell work in the Sportsman's? We're debating wether or not were gonna have to put our big livewell in it. How has everybody got their rod racks set up? We have about ten surf rods, eight drop rods and a couple bait rods that we need to make a rack for that will keep them out of the way yet handy. Don't suggest putting rod racks on the outside of the helm cause my dad WILL NOT do that. It has six rod holders on the splash board but if we get a fish on that decides to go around the boat we'll have to play "move all the rods to the other side, then move them back when the fish turns" We've done that in our V20 and its not fun. It has a bimini top and that what affects our rod rack placement the most. I tried to put a picture of our rod rack in our V20 on here but i'm not sure if it worked.
