I am looking at getting a new boat but have found that most boats offer rod storage for 8' and shorter rods. Most of my rods are 8' - 8'6" 1 pc rods. Where does everyone transport the rods when traveling to the lake and on the water? Do any manufacturers custom build larger storage lockers to accomodate these rods? FYI .. looking at 18-19' boat max.

Thanks,

Ken

the tuffy 1890 has a 8 foot 6 locker. other than a big water boat i think tuffy has the longest storage. i use rod saver and strap them to the front deck

Rod saver straps are the way to go. Hadthem in all of the boats I have owned and haven't lost a rod yet.

Ya, Rod saver straps are a must have.

I lost a $300.00 rod and reel set up about 3yrs. ago out on rough water and almost started crying.
The next day I installed the straps for less than $15.00
