Can you notch or make the tub smaller so it clears the rod holder?

yes, thats one possibility we've discussed. The tubs are small to begin with so cutting it makes it hold almost nothing
Having a rodholder that points out is way more useful than the tub. I was thinking of mounting a bucket in there. It wouldn't ever come out but it could hold a lot of stuff and I could reach in to get it you know, at one point I was trying to design a livewell into that space but I just don't have the time for that now.

I've thought about cutting access hatches into the face of the transom gunnel above the deck drains to gain better access to that area. Might be something to consider to make the space more useful for storage etc?

Well, we left off with me deciding whether to escalate this project to a cap-off full paint restoration or just slap it back together and go fishing...
Today we started slapping it back together. Here are some pictures pulled from video.(I will post a complete transom -pour video when I'm done. Next step is glassing the cuts from the inside and glasssing over the lip of the transom. Don't expect to see a pretty paint job when complete. Gonna get her fishing for a few months while I PLAN out a full resto- and secure a large garage space for winter work.
