    1984 sailfish 25

    Stock gunnel rod holder replacement for modern 228?

    Lucky.....just FYI....I installed a Lee swivel rod holder in the gunwale of my 24 Offshore to accomodate a 130 rod I use for bluefin tuna. The gunnel flexed like crazy with any amount of force applied to the side. I then had to configure a whole base secured to the deck to stop the torque. See...

    1999 grady white 232 gulf stream window replacement

    When my windshield got broken by a seagull dropping a clam on it I had to make a template and a friend who works in a bus repair shop fabricated one out of plexiglass for me. It was good as new. Not sure that you can buy them as replacement parts.
