The CORE SERIES™ 10 Rod Rack is designed for anglers who want maximum rod storage within a compact footprint. At 998mm long with 100mm rod spacing, it stores up to 10 fishing rods in the same overall length as our 7 Rod Rack—making it the ideal choice when maximum storage capacity is the priority.
Built around our innovative GunnelCore™ modular mounting system, every rack is configured to suit your boat using the appropriate backframe. The result is a secure, rattle-free fit across a wide range of aluminium and fibreglass boats—without drilling or compromising your boat.

Why Choose the 10 Rod Rack?
The CORE SERIES™ 10 Rod Rack is built for anglers who want to carry the maximum number of fishing outfits without increasing the overall rack length.
Compared with the 7 Rod Rack, it offers:
-
The same 998mm overall length
-
100mm rod spacing for maximum rod storage
-
Storage for 10 rods instead of 7
-
Ideal for spin reels, soft-bait, strayline, lure and general-purpose fishing outfits
The 10 Rod Rack is designed to maximise storage capacity while remaining incredibly versatile. If you're carrying larger overhead or electric reels, simply leave an empty position between rods where additional clearance is required, provided you have the available space.
For anglers whose primary focus is game fishing, bent butt outfits or larger electric reels, we recommend exploring our dedicated GAME SERIES™, purpose-built specifically for heavy tackle and game fishing applications.
Built for Every Stage of the Journey
Whether you're heading out for a day on the water, storing your rods neatly in the garage or transporting your gear to the boat ramp, the CORE SERIES™ 10 Rod Rack keeps your equipment organised and protected.
-
On the water: Maximum rod storage with quick and easy access.
-
At home: Optional wall-mount brackets provide tidy garage or shed storage.
-
In transit: Suitable for short, low-speed transport when rods are properly secured (at the skipper's discretion).
The CORE SERIES™ is the foundation of every Ultimate Rod Rack, designed to adapt as your boat, fishing style and equipment evolve.
