I installed "rivnuts" or "threadcerts" into the rails of my boat. The threaded knobs hold very well and when removed, the boat still looks great. I cut epdm? on a cnc to hold the rods. I need to redesign that a bit, my plan was to stagger the pole front to back and back to front but thats not only a PITA, but not very secure.
I had to put the rack high enough to clear my windshield and throttle. The other side of my boat is a full length bench so it needed to be the driver side, but I might re think that since I don't need to seat so many when I'm rigging.
I have 12ft rods cause they're cheap, but I could go longer.
