Legend SS storage question

[Matt Kilburn]

I've been looking at several legend boats, and it seems everyone I fined that I like in my range doesn't have the rod storage boxes. Has anyone ever installed themselves or had the boxes installed? I'm not sure if it's even possible, but after looking at the site for awhile I decided to make and account and ask for myself.

I think Troutt and sons can do it or any of the aluminum boat dealers.

As far as I know, Legend SS only offers the rod box in the 60" wide boats. I run an 1860 Legend SS vbass and it has the rod locker. If you want a smaller rig with a rod box, they would have to have one custom ordered. Call Cowtown, tell them what you are looking for and they can get you a price quote. I'm a big fan of Legend SS boats, but if you are looking for something a bit more custom, then you would be doing yourself a favor to call Troutt and Sons and get  quote for them. Jeff McMillen is the main welder/rigger and he can build you anything you want.

Here is another tip for side rod lockers. Make sure you get it with an open front end and use rod socks. You can fit a lot more rods in there. Side rod lockers with grommets for a set amount of rods wastes a lot of space IMO.

That is what Troutt and sons did in my 1752 and I'm glad I did it.  I can get 8 rods in there.  Maybe more but that's the most I've had to deal with.
