Damn, I'm liking that.....I have pretty much come to the conclusion that actually using the rod holders to hold rods is a complete pain in the ***. Nice use of space for storage.

oooooooh!
 Just wrote a post and accidentally lost it by closing the browser. Still not used to this Mac.Oak pollen raining down on boat. Maple seeds raining down on boat. RAIN raining down on boat...  Wanted to be launched before the oaks dropped but NOOOO! Got some things done on the gunnel project. Changed my mind and decided to go the whole length with bolster instead of the 36" ones. (bought those when Boater's World went out of business years ago for $10). The pvc fascia in the pic will get covered in vinyl bolster. Ordering some vinyl foam and Monel staples. With 2" foam I'll have 3 1/2" of toe kick....sweet!

can't catch a fish so I worked on the bolsters today.
My first time doing this. worked out pretty OK. Not the best corners... I bought vinyl and foam from onlinefabrics 3yds x54" $33 and 2"x24"x59" eva-dry foam $33. Enough vinyl to do the job twice plus some.. spray adhesive and Monel staples(West Marine $27 ouch!) brass grommets for drainage/airflow. bought at West Marine $19 kit then saw them at Lowes for $8 covering the 3/4" x 5 1/2" PVC fascia. added 3 mounting bolts before starting the job. Will mount on the gunnels if it ever stops raining.

Done..for now.
mounted the bolsters, looks great.
Now to see who is the first one to bury a treble hook in them... Also, someone mentioned my splash well in the fishing forum. I covered the front half with starboard and a piece of angle aluminum for reinforcement. (Strong enough to hold my 200 lbs) Cooler tie downs and a homemade starboard cutting board mounted to the cooler. With the cooler off, the Suzuki can raise all the way. Also made new deck lids for inside the cuddy and added a hawse pipe to pass the anchor line through to the cuddy Still have a bunch of starboard left for more projects.
