I am looking to add a few clamp on rod holders to the hardtop pipes of my 95 272 Sailfish. Are the pipes 2"????

Thanks,

Fred
 
Hi Fred, I used the Taco Clamp on's and really like them as they are very adjustable. Not so sure every model has same pipe, but once you find out what you have, check the Taco's out. I am going on 4th year with them and no issues and they are holding up very well.

Thanks! I will check them out.
 
Roberth did you use the horizontal or vertical ones that are angled?
 
I have the vertical Lee's on my old Sailfish. Don't remember the size, but I can measure them when I get home.

I still have them if you think you would be interested. They are the silver finish and are in excellent condition. Can send you pics if you would like.
 
Pic added. I have moved and re-adjusted them several times to get them just where I wanted for best angle and reach.

Do you know the model? Or where you got them from? They're a little different than the other ones I have found.
 
I tried to search for where I got them and part number, but can't seem to find it as it was near 4 years ago. Looks like a couple different one's that are candidates to fit and are adjustable. The link I sent is the most likely candidate that I purchased.

I just did a search on Google and found what is out there at best price with trusted company is what I usually do. Normally get this type of stuff from Capt. Harry's, Star Marine Depot, Defender or Jamestown. Just depends on who has them at the time.
 
The ones I have (fit my '93) appear to be Lee's RA5003 as the inside diameter of the clamp is a hair over 1-5/8".

Let me know if you are interested.
