Configured to Fit. Built Tough. Made for Your Boat.

Finding the right rod rack shouldn’t be guesswork.

Ultimate Rod Racks are built around our GunnelCore™ modular mounting system, allowing each rack to be configured to suit a wide range of boat brands, models, and layouts. This approach delivers a fit that’s far more precise than generic “universal” racks — without the cost or complexity of full custom fabrication.

Refined through years of supplying and supporting rod rack systems for a wide range of boats, GunnelCore™ represents the latest evolution of our fit philosophy: configured for real boats, built to adapt.

Choose Your Boat — We’ll Configure the Rest

Simply select your boat brand, then enter your exact boat model in the order notes at checkout. We’ll configure your rod rack system prior to dispatch based on known layouts and proven setups.

No guesswork. No unnecessary add-ons. No overcomplication.

📌 Important
👉 Adding your boat model at checkout is essential.
This allows us to confirm the most suitable backframe option, spacing, and mounting configuration before your order is supplied.

Designed to Suit Real Boats

Modern boats vary more than ever — and rod rack mounting needs to account for that.

Gunwale angles, pocket depths, and coaming styles differ between brands and models. That’s exactly why Ultimate Rod Racks are built on the GunnelCore™ system, allowing the appropriate backframe and configuration to be selected to suit your boat type.

✔ SLR backframes for tighter, lower-profile pockets
✔ Hybrid backframes for deeper or box-section pockets
✔ Game Series compatibility for heavier tackle and offshore setups

And if you change boats in the future, you can often keep your rack — simply update the backframe or configuration to suit your next setup.
