This is a going to be a bit tricky to describe and I've got no pic, so here goes.
The horizontal rod holders in gunnels have little, 2 - 3" black caps at the front and back on each level (3 rod holders per side, 6 plastic caps per side, 12 for the boat). These caps have little star like patterns cut into the plastic which permit the tips of the rods to slide through. I assume that this is a good place for water to enter the hull and ultimately waterlog the foam? Any issues if I seal these up? I've just had them lenghtened to hold a 9' rod and could pub pvc caps on them (or other suitable glass solution) to make them water tight.
Thoughts?
