Havent done any maintenance on them. When I wash my car they get cleaned, or when it rains. They are powder coated aluminum & everything else seems to be a high quality stainless.

Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing

Don't go Thule ... I have the rod rack ... actually purchased it from Mad Dog, it's not bad, but does not compare to some of the other models you can get on the market ... go with the ones the guys suggested above ... I think the Thule rack is better for fly rods than larger saltwater rods ...would not buy one again ...

The rod vault on SOL teamed with some yakima or thule bars seems like a good option to me. if you don't care about them locking you can just use a 2*4 with cheap rod mounts.
