I have a 1995 268 Islander. She is 2 years old (to me)... The boat came with very nice top guns already installed. I was wondering what outrigger poles to buy. They sell 15' and 18' pretty common. Also I dont really want to go through the hasstle of removing the rigging every time we go out with the telescoping type. Are there any recommendations out there? Also any tricks to keeping the rigging attached all the time. or any other comments I may consider? Thanks GW Fam....

I have Lee 24' and love them, mine are side mount as you can see. I modified them to swing down (front go up to get pinned to the hard top) so I can get under a bridge I have to pass under to get out of our canal.
My recommendation is to get the longer ones.
