    Default Mounting Driftmasters on Xtreme


    I need suggestions on how to mount my driftmasters on my 2008 xtreme I just got. I would like to mount them along the gunnel. Does anybody on here have a xtreme that they have rigged out. I have an idea how I will do my T-bars, I just would like some suggestions on mounting my singles along the gunnels. Thanks and God Bless..

    That's a tough one unless your willing to drill holes completely through the gunnel from inside out and use a bracket like the side mount base. Really like the layout of your boat

    I know driftmaster offers some rod holders with taller stems, so may have to mount your singles to the floor or along the edges of your storage compartments to clear everything on your boat.
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

    What if I drilled and tapped? Would that be secure enough? I don't want to strip nothing out though..
    The taller stems may be my best option.. That way I want mess up the gunnel and I would have a base for my t-bars in the front. What y'all think?

    I may have enough room to mount those bases behind some of my compartment door. Between the gunnel and where the door hinges. ??
