Installation
Provided with your 360 rotating rod holder is an actual size template for ease of positioning your rod holder in the desired location. Depending on the width of your Gunwale and the position of the rod holder being Port, Starboard or on the stern of your craft you need to take into consideration of the amount of rotation you seek and obstructions in the location of the rod holder.
We recommended you take the time to inspect under the Gunwale for any interference or obstructions that may be present, if properly positioned, be it a retro fit or a fresh install on the Port or Starboard sides of your craft you will all ways acheive a rotation area of at least a minimum 180-degree to the fishing zone with more rotation possible with a wider Gunwale, in the stern of the craft similar conditions apply in positioning for maximum rotation around the fishing zone
