Scott M-

I made the rod racks using 2x4s and 2 inch PVC. I put two sections of 2x4's on the bottom and then a row of 2 inch sections of PVC up top. The butt of the rod goes throgh a hole drilled in the first 2x4 and then stops against the second 2x4 while the rod section is fit in a slot cut into the side of the PVC and then gravity does the rest.

Trayder - excellent article! Answered a few questions stirring in the tiny mind of mine... I also want to echo what LT said - even though no 23 is torn apart in the driveway - I'm better prepared and have learned a lot from all of you - thanks !

You know - it's a tough call, but 38 degree Michs after a flight to 80 degre FLA, or 41 degree Blueberry Blondes at Coddingtons on a 38 degree, howlin' Noreaster - hmmmm, what to do, what to do...

For those of you that live in Florida there is a place called L.A. Marine Inc. in Fort Lauderdale 954-791-2552 that make and sell 4’x 8’ fiberglass panels in 4 different
thick nesses from 1/16 to ¼” the cost goes from $108.00 to $259.00 per panel. They are white gel coated on one side and glass and resin on the other. When I re did my boat I considered making some panels as well but ended up using some of the old decking and the old live well to fabricate any needed sheets of glass. Some times you can salvage some really good material from marine boat builders and repair guys that are just going to throw scrap stuff away.
