Re: More raider Projects
the Penn DR is mounted on a Penn Swivel head which is mounted on the Scotty universal rail mount which has two notched rail brackets and thumb screws to keep it in place. The swivel mount has 36 stops , i think so you can set it at almost any required angle to the boat and it stays put. So I guess i...

Projects are what i am doing to make her mine. I added rod holders made from Starboard that are pressure fit/wedged. Used commercial foam mount attached to the Starboard as the is nothing to attach them to on the side of the hull. I did find the 2 part glue on bolt system, which if my effort fails, ...

Scuppers
I'd like to install a couple of scuppers on my new Raider, but if I measure it correctly it is very close or at the resting waterline. Has anyone got a safe and effective method of accomplishing this? They need to be able to handle small bits of debris, blood and guts, herring heads, whatever! THX C...

NEW Raider NEW Here!
Hello Everyone, I have enjoyed reading all the posts and admiring the boats and the projects. I jumped into the fray with the purchase of a 2009 Raider 185 Pro Fisherman. I had a 2005 Yamaha 90 and a 2008 EzLoader trailer already, just needed a boat. There is a bit of a long story, but I am not goin...
