I am planning on making backing plates whether I use starboard or aluminum is still undecided - for all my rod holders. Sailfish blew it there when they installed the holders with out backing plates. I cleaned up some of the wiring rat nest in the console in preparation for an autopilot if the money gods cooperate. I moved the wash down connection from the center of the transom to under the starboard side gunnel exiting one of the rod holder holes. I added a hose hammock to keep the coiled hose out of the way. I rebuilt/cleaned the wash down pump and the fresh water pump while I was under the aft rod holders.
Other than that I will just wait to see if the ap will be doable. Raymarine ev-100 I have all the networking figured out its just a matter of spending the $$$.
