I am also thinking about adding some fishing rod holders, and I need advise for the best place to mount these. I have a bimini cover and I want to keep my rods from getting in the way. Thanks

Zekekb,
Sorry I can't be of much help on the cushions...but as for the rod holders I have a couple of ideas. First off, if you're looking for rod storage, I see a lot of folks (me included) mount these types inside the gunnels.

For holding your rods while fishing/trolling/moving from place to place I use these:

They are much easier to install than the traditional stainless flush mount holders and are fully adjustable to position your rods exactly where you need thim. You can also seal them with Rule very easily so no water will get into your inner hull. I mounted four flush mount bases toward the rear of my boat just beyond where the bimini top reaches so I can tilt them up for traveling and down for trolling. I have posted pictures in the 170CC modifications section. I also mounted two rail mount bases at the front of the boat for when I have more people fishing with me. The actual rod holders just pop out of the base and can be moved around or stored when not fishing. These are just a couple of ideas that have worked for me. I'm sure there are many different ways to solve your problem, please post some pictures when you finally decide upon a system.
