Re: Rod box organizer

what i usually do is make my own, to fit the particular boat, and my needs. drill bit, and jig saw, piece of plywood.

Re: Rod box organizer

You will be better off building one yourself. It's the only way to make all of the space useable.

Yup - make it yourself. Here is one I made for my Alumacraft Navigator. That rod locker now holds 8 rods. Two on the bottom, six in the rack. Hole saw and a router with a rounding over bit makes the holes nice and smooth. paint or stain and polyurethane to protect it.

Re: Rod box organizer

thanks Silvertip, I like how you made yours and will do just about the same but I think I would like to have the plastic tubes for the rod tips in mine. Any idea on where I could get some?

Re: Rod box organizer

Lotta bass boat guys use golf tubes. They make two of the little mounts like the above pictures, to hold the golf tubes apart.

Golf club tubes...that's a good idea. They have a flange at the end so it doesn't slip through the hole. Why didn't I think of that!
