Revo rod holder mount etc

Hello. I did a demo in a 13 Revo and it felt great. It seemed quieter than an Outback, could that be true ? Anyway, I was thinking of how to attach a rod holder, Could I use a flat panel like on the ProAngler and set holders etc on that. It looks like I could mount a flat surface and then install rod holder etc to the flat panel. Am I wrong ? Also I met a guy that put a Scotty mount right in the side pouch pocket that looked like a nice place to put one also. Where do you guys in Revos put your rod holders..... etc

You can mount a rod holder in the mast tube, or drill a hole and install a rod holder wherever you can fit it.  Just one thing, make sure that spot will be comfortable and not interfere with anything BEFORE you drill.  )

I have one in my mast tube.  It is not the best to fish with but it has been invaluable for rigging because I set my rod in it and can change lures etc while peddling.  I have a few Yak Attack gear tracks but I am not sure where I am going to mount them yet.  I plan on taping one to my kayak and playing with it before I do any drilling. 

I used my mast hole for a RAM FF mount, and put a flush Scotty receiver on both sides.

Revo rigging thread, heavy on the pictures.  This should give you a few ideas to play with.

Thanks INSAYN, ya beat me to it.  I'm going to update this thread shortly.  I've moved some stuff around and made some adjustments.  Mainly, I moved my forward RAM Revolution Rod holder even more forward and relocated my GPS mount so I can hang my legs off both sides now.  I'm also probably going to ditch the Scotty mount rod holder right behind the seat.  It seemed like a good idea, but it makes accessing the rear gear well a P.I.T.A..

Yes!  Updates please, before I start putting holes in mine!  Right now I'm just going to be trolling by hand.  I have my fishfinder mounted in the mast tube and completely removeable.  The Engagement doesn't have a single hole drilling in her yet.

BWAH-HAH-HA-HA-HA!!!   

Are you waiting for your next boat, the HMS Marriage for that?   

Nah, just having some fun with word play.

Bump that revo rigging post when you update it please

Bottom of the page for links to various Revo modifications.  I am very seriously considering replacing my bar with Yak Attack Tracs.

I really like the bow lacing.  The position of the padeyes is perfect for mounting a YakCatch3 fish bag.
I'm particularly proud of the Scotty bailing pump mount.

Ditto -- I just took delivery on a Revo 13 today, and need to go to school on this while I still have some few dollars left in the bank.
