kayak rod holder error
Posted: Thu Jun 02, 2011 10:17 pm
So I had a friend put 2 rod holders on my Ocean Kayak Torque this past weekend and when I went to pick up my kayak.....he had them in backwards!!! Its the normal place behind the seat, one to the left and one to the right, but instead of having the holders facing so the rods are going back they go forward, hence making it so you can't paddle without bumping into poles ( or what ever you may have in them) So my question is, how do I fix this? Can I remove them? ( he riveted them in and sealed them with a gasket and sealer ) Honestly IF I can remove them, the place they are, I would have to look into a different holder as its too far down to just flip the holders without going over edges of the molding. I could just try to come up with some sort of PVC device to hold rods and things, turning the rod holders into a PVC holder. I guess this is what I get for being lazy and not doing it myself......Any advice would be great.
