Thanks for the report!

Great job!

Nice job. Just a note on the rigger extensions I am not sure what gauge and size tube you are using or how long they are but watch if you get something big hit the riggers. That is a lot of leverage force on them. I was pretty shocked at how much stress my extensions had on the board. Your set up looks a lot like mine - I think you will really like it. I added some rod holders and stuff to my board over the winter. Looking forward to seeing how it all works on the water this year.

Just inch and a quarter by 12'' high standard Galvanized pipe. I drilled through all the flanged areas with threads and bolted through to keep from spinning under stress...... I may put mounts back under drill press to put bigger bolts though..... standard size was for 1/4' bolt holes might step it up though I could see the stress flexing on them when in the bigger waves.
