Tackle Box ... Rod Holders Installed

I made up the other two rod holders from PVC pipe and added a collar to help keep them in the right place. I have three layers of plywood that will secure the holders, and the middle layer has a slightly large hole to accommodate the collar. The holes for the top and bottom layers are small enough that the collar won't pass through them, securing the holder in position (in addition to the epoxy).


I used some epoxy to glue the rod holders to the box. The bottom two layers of ply still need to be trimmed to size.


Test fit in the kayak behind the front seat. It wouldn't want to be any wider otherwise it would encroach on the leg space of the rear passenger.
