Bait and Switch
Mate Series™ Combination Rod & Cup Holders do more than just improve the way your boat looks they are also the solution to the age-old dilemma of what to do when a fish strikes and you have a drink in your hand. You could just toss that drink to your buddy but he's got to reel in the other lines. So you either search for a cup holder or drop it on the deck. An of course every second counts with a fish on the line! With Mate Series all that has changed; you just swap drink for rod and start reeling. It's as simple as that.
All the Angles
Mate Series™ Combination Rod & Cup Holders are available with 0°, 15°, and 30° angles and are suitable for installation anywhere along the gunwales, on leaning posts, etc.
Quality Construction
Mate Series™ Combination Rod & Cup Holders are built to last. The design team at Mate Series draws on decades of experience engineering parts for the automotive, agricultural, defense, and marine industries. Metal parts are constructed of the highest quality 316 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance. Plastic parts utilize impact resistant ABS material similar to that used in the most demanding automotive applications (most plastic rod holders are made of less durable vinyl materials). All parts are "over engineered" for maximum durability under heavy use.
Easy Installation
Installation of the Rod & Cup Holders is easy because the cup holder portion at the top of the unit is not angled (unlike conventional rod holders). A simple right angle hole-saw cut makes retrofits and OEM installation a breeze. An optional backing plate is available.
