That's more like it Jason...a waterborne snack bar...what's next, a snow cone machine?[;)] Try Outer Banks 1-800-826-boat...they should have something on page 210 in their catalog. If you use cans, they make a small plastic lid that pops on the top of the can + can be found at a Wally Mart or hardware store....for coffee I use the widest base cup I can find that has a lid w/ a sliding opening for drinking...so many drinks...so little time!

Not sure what kind they put on the Crestliners from the factory, but mine have worked great so far. Obviously pounding across big waves will cause some splashing, but as far as holding a can securely (And folding out of the way when not in use), those seem like a pretty good deal to me. Check a Crest dealer, I'd imagine they have some sitting around there.

If you are just looking for aftermarket, Bass Pro sells the folding and adjustable cup holders. They are good I had them on my Smoker Craft and have similiar ones on my 620. I know on the Esox Magnums they have almost identical ones.

Also a bra/bungee cord works great + you can shoot your buddy a can from 1 end of the boat to the other...just hang it around your neck![;)]

Jason,

I had found a cut-out cup holder that you can mount on any flat surface. It's about 3 inches in diameter and is plastic. You can buy them in different depths (down to about the height of the can if you want. cost was only about $.99 for each holder. If you buy them deep enough, your can/cup will not come out and spill all over your rig. I have one in the rear of the boat and one in the front, so the only one that would possibly spill by big waves while driving is the front.

Forgot one time to take an empty can out of it and went home, stayed put and didn't come flying out.

In overton's they have a can holder thats got beans in it so it won't tip over so much.

If you have a trully fast rocket ship it will not matter. The beer, pop, water. juice etc just sucks right up outofthe can at full bore. A covered can or bottle is the only answer, they won't spill with the lid on.

Yep...M1

Thats my problem.....When I break the sound barrier to get to my next spot, my soda is empty. LOL


Thanks for all the tips guys. The standard fold up holders dont work too well.
