How to install rod holders into your boat - Drill and Riveting!

Is there anything more terrifying than drilling holes in your perfectly good boat?
Time to break out the drill and replace my broken rod holder.

Great job - thanks for the hot tips

Hey mate Do you know what size hole that is for your rod holders so I know what size hole saw to get? Cheers

[@aussiedadlife]

Sorry mate I don't. The rod holders are like 8 bucks. And you can measure them up. I would hazard a guess around the 45mm size but could be wrong

Is that dirt or corrosion?

Dirt mate

I noticed 2 transducers on the back of your boat why have you done that?

I upgraded to a bigger unit and have kept the old one in mate. Video on that will be coming as well
