My wife and I have been discussing some sort of removable system to secure our tanks on board. I would love to see pics of other people's solutions. We love to fish also, so it's hard to give up space at the stern. I know one of you has the perfect rig!!!

Niel,
This is what I did. The racks are Ogremaxxraxx and I drilled two holes in the rod storage starboard to tie them so they don't fall over. I have put some pictures up on our FTP for you to look at. http://photo.pacificwestcontrols.com/~M ... 54616e6b73

Thanks for the pics. I love it, that looks like a great system. Easy to remove. I saw the photo of your control panel!!!! That is some fancy business! Looks like an airplane console. Nice boat Mr.

Thanks Neil she has been a labor of love and needed a lot of it. I am semiretired so I needed a project to keep me from going crazy! Dana Point is only 10 mins from where we are in San Clemente. Wiring things has been good to me so the boat panel was a snap. I like to help where I can and need to stay busy so win win!

I must have missed this. What post is it in? I'm going to be doing a full rebuild of the bridge console on our 35 over the winter - time and money permitting. Always like to see what other people have done on their boats.
