How wide?

Does the deck of the boat have to be to comfortably spider rig 2 people? Sitting side by side. I have a 1751 Polarkraft Mod V. is there a general rule of thumb? Thanks crex

We do it out of a 1648. I just remove the front seat on the deck, stick in the rod holder rig I made out of a seat pedistal base. Then the two of us sit behing the deck side by side. Rods are right at eye level, work pretty good. A little more room would not bother me, but it works for us. You just have to get creative.

If you have any pics of this set up I like to see them also. I have a 1648 and would like to see how I could set mine up like that. Thanks in advance
