Driftmaster crowfoot spider rigging system received

Published on 09-15-2013 06:00 AM

I got in my award from crappie.com today for winning the story contest. I got it put together and wow is all I can say. I really didn't think the bow of my boat was going to be wide enough, but it fits perfectly. the back of the boat is not deep enough behind the seat hole for it to fit without hanging over the little well in front of the motor ang gouging my fiberglass. I am attaching pics. yall tell me what yall think. hopefully me and little man can test drive it this weekend.

Awesome setup, I really like the twin seat post up front.

Wow, looks great, wish I could set my boat for those. As for the rig for the back, how about measuring how much the arc for the rod holders needs to go back towards the driver to get out of the splash well and take it to an aluminum welder and have that person cut that much out ofthe longitudinal piece that runs toward the motor and reweld it. I'm just looking at it 2d and there might not be enough room to put your feet when you set down but I think you might be able to re-engineer it some way to get it to fit. Good fishing and catching.

How Awesome! So glad you won. Have you ever tried spider rigging? Best way to enjoy a good cup of coffee! I think Uncle Lewis would be proud, and look, another gold medal!

That's really nice - I like the way the T-bar is on the floor - not up in the air.

I would re-drill the hole for the seat post bolt, to up where that logo is located. That would move the whole unit towards the front of the boat, but you wouldn't lose leg room. It might sit on top of that hatch, tho
