Matt, our last boat was a 2004 Triton 20′ X-boat with a nice wide “ramp” outboard of the console which was great for rods. Our Caracal has nothing flat so all tips converge into a…mess, hence the Console Buddy. I’m not worried at all about the rod tips as they don’t stick out beyond the boat hull.
Iowa Bass, I’m still trying to find a price point which makes a little profit for me and is affordable for buyers. Our Rod Ramp Buddies sell for $60 but they just bolt down to the deck or console, these have the extra material and machining of the aluminum base which replaces the cup-holder. The base costs more than the rest of the part to make. Call me and we’ll figure out something you can afford and something that pays me a little for my idea and time. 805-550-7865
