I wasn't able to post on the picture part of this float tubing forum. So I'll try and upload my custom rod rack.
My rod rack was desighned by Gerald Swindal and Skeet Reese and was assembled on a show call Bass Tech on ESPN. If you haven't been to my float tube clubs site feel free to check it out and introduce yourself on our forum.
Enjoy

That is a pimped out toon! Nice comfy seat and all of the amenities. How long is it, and how much does it weigh? Do you haul and launch it from a trailer?
I would love to see some additional pictures of the back and front. I see the top of your battery, but is that just the lid or is it suspended? You have some hinges on there also. Are they to a compartment or is that a flip up motor mount?
Nice as a bass boat.

Gad you liked it. I load the boat into my trucks bed. It weighs about 48 pounds. It's 8' long. The hinges are for a trap door that opens into a follow me bag type of live well. Notice the reseced battery box and the running light. I don't use this rear deck or live well. I have a different rear deck and a custom out of the water ilve-well for when I'm fishing tournaments with the Sonoma County Belly Boat Bass Club. I also have some how to's on building live-wells for your kick boat on you tube. Just look up my user name and you'll get hooked up. The boat is a southfork Bucksbag and I love it. I posted some extra pictures on my original post. Enjoy.

Man, you all had fun with that aluminum. I went with a full deck on my pontoon, but I carpeted it because of the reflective glare.

Looks pretty good. Lots of daimond plate though. Would like to see the live well a little closer. Interesting ideas at work![cool]
