See those two rod-holders mounted on front of the splashwell?...those are the handiest bastards on the boat...not shown, but they hold at the ready spinning rods ready to throw and a bait-dip net (2nd photo) for retrievin' live-bait from the bait-tank...easily over-looked, but sorely missed...

Can't ever seem to have the best location for a bumper to be tied to without adding an extra cleat or stringing rope from one end to the other?
I'll bet you have the perfect locations for the rodholders though, well combine them!! ![]() ![]() ![]() 1" PVC with a 3/4" (or less) hole drilled into it, cut to the depth of your rodholder.

That is a good idea, I've seen similar items forsale somewhere......I have brass clips on my bumper lines and have put small stainless "D's" where I need em. (Sorry, no pics)
Send that bumper to Lumberslinger so he can detail it for ya.

Something I'm sure some of ya'll are already doing, I just haven't stepped back to watch what I'm doing with anchor rope.
In the past I would store anchor rope neatly coiled and tied. Even to the point to wrap Velcro straps around them to keep them neat. While washing the ropes in a 5 gallon bucket of water, it dawned on me, just keep the ropes in an open container. You can transfer them, access them, do just about anything you want and don't have to worry about tangles, knots, etc. What I've got is a 100', 1/2", primary anchor rope in a holder ready for deployment, then the secondary anchor rope, throw line and dock lines in the other container. ![]() They are stackable, you can wash the ropes in the container and then store them. ![]()
