Overall, I think it seems good for the money although I feel may need a little work down the road with additional hardware or repairs with use. As questioned by someone else on this project surf rods with long butts will not work out of the box, there is no stop in rod holders and they will hit the ground, if using smaller gear will be fine if reels hit the top of holder 1st. I think manufacture should add stops but I easily added after the fact, ensure you perform prior to mounting. Purchased 3/8" aluminum rod from home store and cut into 2.25" lengths. Drilled corresponding holes in rod holders, please note 3/8" bit was too small with cheap aluminum rod, used 25/64" and had to freeze for tight fit. Mushroomed ends out with hammer and anvil and works perfect for a stop. Looking forward to use soon once FL cools down.
