I'm building a roof rack for Hammerhead. I'm going to build a cargo basket and going to put rocket launchers on the back near the cockpit. Anybody have a suggestion for the closest center to center measurement between tubes? I'm thinking 6". _________________ Clay on Hammerhead

Depends on the size of the reels you are expecting to use. |

6" would be pretty tight. I just measured center to center + a little extra to keep the handles from tangling..here's what I got-
Shimano tekota 500 salmon/rock fish reel, 7-7.5" would be a good dimension
big penn sturgeon/haiibut reels 8"
it's plum aggravating to have to clock all your reel handles to get the rods stored _________________ Ken

6" is fine for most reels. |

Thanks, I'm going to go with 7", which will give me 7 tubes total. |
