Thanks for the responses all!
I know I could mock up my own, just thought it'd be easier if someone had some they weren't going to use.
Kmoose - Currently don't have any holders under there, and my gunnel does have some flex. With that said, with every rod holder I have installed the gunnel is dry as a bone. I was going to pull the cap off and re-core but if its all dry it's easier for me to just back everything and add some structure to help against the flexing. For example, I have some swivel rod holders that have clamshell brackets that go through the side of the boat. Just adding those cut down most of the flexing I saw. Since the boat is a 1976, I doubt the design of the gunnels had BFT fishing in NE in mind with big 130 rods and 130 reels.
If either of you guys dig them out and want to sell them, I will absolutely grab them! My cell is 1-617-997-1305 if easier too.
Thanks all!
