Custom Cooler Rack

Postby hobiefish » Thu Sep 16, 2010 7:30 am

I was searching the web for parts for my latest jetski mod and came across this website.

What do you think of this?

Well, your are certainly not going to like my latest mod then because it involves at least 4 more holes!!

i'm just wondering about the weight distribution on the cooler when it's full of water. won't it force the jetski to roll left and right harder because of the water tossing back and forth inside the cooler?

i'm still waiting for torpedo to call.. i'll make a post in the trips section tonight.

good looking rack...

does it sitting so high get in the way of fishing in the back?

probably.. it might tilt your jetski twice as much rolling in the swells though with the cooler so high. overall, it's a nice looking rack but impractical, IMHO. :roll:

Nice looking rack but I would think the high center of gravity would affect handling. Plus it looks to require a good amount of unscrewing to remove it in order to play with the ski. They are in Houston so I might reach out to them and see what else they offer. Maybe we can get it lowered, removable and with a trolling motor mount and still afford our launch fee....
