I just bought a new 18' North River Mariner and am considering how to
mount downriggers. The boat has 1-1/4" rails all around and no good
flat spot on the gunwales to fasten a mounting plate. Scotty's is the
only manufacturer I could find that has a downrigger mount for this
size rail that I could find. Anyone have any experience with this
kind of setup or have an additional idea?
thanks,
bob
