Got one of them that came with the boat, it's ok for lighter outfits but heavier combos have bounced out (on the deck luckily). I don't really trust they will stay up there. I think it's probaly best to get one made, instead of these

was thinking i could save a couple of dollars buying this then getting shade made.
its 32mm alloy not sure what wall thickness but the rod holders are alloy as well. even though they look plastic in the pic.

You get what you pay for, and that looks good for an inshore tinnie.
