Re: My ai rod holders

Nah I don't sit straddle in adventure mode, when I had it in adventure I didn't find it too tippy and don't mind the sounder being there. It might impede re-entry on that side but I can get around to the other side if needed, and it dosnt take up much room so will be able to squeeze passed it. Might...

The tubes are pretty useful just as is, I've just gotta do an on water test to see if I'll be able to have rods in th...

My ai rod holders

Here are some of my solutions for rod holders on the AI. This first one is a pvc solution which slots into the standard rod holders and is gonna be mainly used for trolling. Its held in place by two ropes, one rope to the front which dosnt stretch and holds the rod holder in place to prevent it bein...

Re: Smartphone GPS apps?

I've got three on mine, I use Navionics au/nz the most, I think it cost around $20 but is definitely worth it (the free version is still pretty good though) Gps waypoints navigator made by ds software which I think cost around $10-$20 (free version is called polaris gps navigation, upgraded to allow...
