Designed, manufactured, and sold by Ultimate Rod Racks NZ as aftermarket products compatible with a wide range of boat brands — including Senator Boats.
Purpose-Built for the Senator Range — Engineered for a Perfect Fit
The SLR Frame (Silverback Low Rider) is purpose-designed to suit most Senator boats — excluding the Cuddy 500 and SC540.
Built on the GunnelCore™ System adjustable mounting system, the SLR is engineered to work with both straight and angled storage pockets, delivering a secure, professional fit across the Senator range. Where required, optional GunnelCore™ System brackets allow the rack to sit lower to the floor for improved access, balance, and stability.
Compatible Senator Models
-
Side Console – SC500
-
Cuddy – 550
These modular models offer two fitting options, depending on how you want to use your rack.
Fitting Options
Removable System
The Hybrid 34mm removable unit, built on the GunnelCore™ System, provides a flexible, non-permanent solution that can be removed when required — ideal for owners who want versatility.
Static Console Mounting
For a permanent install, the Console Assembly System provides a solid, fixed mount directly to your console for maximum stability.
All setups include an adjustable base mount to fine-tune alignment and keep the rack perfectly straight.
Why Senator Owners Choose the Silverback Low Rider
Designed around Senator's practical pocket layouts, the SLR keeps everything organised — from soft-bait and jigging setups through to heavier outfits — while maintaining a clean, functional deck.
