Rod Holders in 330 DA:
I'd like to put two rod holders in my '97 330da. i've seen them mounted on the port and starboard gunwales and also I've seen 2 rod holders mounted on the transom just off the centerline of the boat, so they drain into the transom locker. I like this option because any water that gets in the rod holders leads into the transom locker and that is fine with me. Granted I won't be able to troll 2 lines with this configuration, but I don't fish too often anyway. My question is do the port and starboard side mounted rod holders drain into the engine room??? That seems bad. Especially the starboard side which would be right above the generator.
Any input on this would be appreciated.
Thanks
