    If you have rope cleats on that boat you are in luck. Check out our website at Extreme Fishing Concepts We also carry a full line of Driftmaster and Santee Rod Holders.

    I went through this process a while back and ended up using a combination of the Hi-Tek and Extreme holders. Sort of a hybrid affair. Do a search for my posts under "ccm". You will see what I came up with. I posted pictures which may help. Scott was a tremendous help for me.

    Let me know if I can help.

    Bee Ready makes some like I have that have a set up that connects to the pedestal of my seat and no drilling holes in my boat at all. You can get them with 3 or 4 rod holders and they work great! I don't know about any of the ones mentioned above, but this is just another way.

    Oh yeah, I bought the Be-ready seat pedestal style at a boat show a few years back. It wasnt stable enough for me.
    I worried about it bouncing up & down in rough water,or rod lift. pretty noisy on a non carpeted aluminum boat.
