It takes about five minutes though retro fitting the parts can be a challenge as older boats were not setup for parts that were not available at the time of production. We have done one retro and it would be a job. We will get a number for relief you need over the rod holder and if yours has enough space it could be done. The parts are expensive as the cams are custom aluminum and the brass barrel nut is custom also, then the parts and socket we import from New Zealand.Last edited by Bass Cat Boats on April 18th, 2014, 2:05 pm, edited 1 time in total.
