I was just at West MArine and happened to see some "outrigger backing plates", ewwwwwwww, pretty shiny aluminum............$68.00 WHOA, are they kidding?

Good GAWD, my CNC mill could do those for nearly nuthin. Even better, I could do it out of my fav material, G10, garolite and it wouldnt cause corrosion.

What Y'all fishy people think? Do people really pay that much for a couple pieces of shiny aluminum with holes in em?

Looking on e-bay, I find Taco outrigger backing plates for $72.00. WOW. Now, I doubt there is much of a market for any individual type and short of going into West with a caliper and measuring, how would one go about finding correct dimensions for various types?

You would buy them and measure them.
