Kitchwiz Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 I have a new to me Pathfinder 2200V, she is a 2001 with skinny gunnels. I am looking to install some Kicker rod holders on the rear of the boat. Has anyone found any angled ones that will fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin-addict Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 What do you mean by kicker and where on the back of the boat. A photo would help.. 👍⚓️fin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchwiz Posted June 20 Author Report Share Posted June 20 Anywhere aft of the console looking to match same for the port side as Starboard . Kickers are where the outer holders keep your rods kicked out for a better spread while trolling. Mot everyone put their kickers on the Tee top but I opted for no Tee top.

HoneyB Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 If you are looking to turn a 30 degree holder outboard I doubt you will have room in the narrow gunnel. I think I have seen them squeeze a rod holder in pointing aft but really kicking them out might be too much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it these are what you’re talking about. Never heard them called Kickers. I run them from my midship rod holders to increase my spread and the aft holders as straight line center holders. At times I will use them as shown. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The space between the hull and the liner in the 2001 is less than the 2002 and later. You should measure the gunnel width and subtract the distance from the gunnel edge and the hull side. This will give you a rough ides if there is enough room to add one. If Hobo is still lurking I am sure he would know off the top of his head if it can be done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtrfred Posted July 2 Report Share Posted July 2 I have a 2001 2200V. I installed some bimini top hardware on the gunnel. I dont see anyway that you could get a rod holder into the cap. I think the only option is to install them into the rear deck inside the boat. I have seen a few people do this but have been hesitant to do this myself. I am worried about all the sprayed in foam and having open holes that drain into the bilge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchwiz Posted July 9 Author Report Share Posted July 9 Thank you all. I will probably put mine it the Aft deck as suggested and cover them up with a snap down seat /pad when not in use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cdebo1 Posted September 30 Report Share Posted September 30 I have a 2009 22v I installed 2 15 degree in the aft transom out board if i remeber corectly it wwas 6" in from the aft and 4 1/2" in from the side. The only snag i ran into is the bilge pump hose loop was in the way on the starboard side but i was able to get it to flop out of the way. Also can not get thru bolts unless you cut the inner liner i just want it as a place to put the rod down on the reef not looking to troll from it.
