Bowline
Products Introduces the Gorilla Locking Rod Rack
Delray Beach, Florida,
November 7, 2003. We have all done it – that nervous glance over
your shoulder as you leave your boat, your prized fishing rods
proudly displayed in the rod holders. The sad truth is that a
potential thief may be just steps away. And whether you are tied up
at a waterway eatery for a bite to eat, berthed overnight for a
quiet island getaway, or even waiting at a traffic light while
trailering your boat home after a day of fishing, that thief could
be on and off your boat with your rods in hand in the time it has
taken you to read this paragraph.
An innovative company in
Delray Beach, Florida has come up with a solution: the Gorilla
Locking Rod Rack. Developed and manufactured by Bowline Products,
the Gorilla Locking Rod Rack does not look that revolutionary at
first glance. But look again.
The subtle contours of the
rack's main body, designed after extensive study of more than 300
different reels, serve a vital purpose. Like a conventional rod
rack, Gorilla can keep up to four rods stowed securely yet easily
accessible. But once the tough stainless steel locking bar is
slipped into place, rods and reels cannot be removed from the rack.
And because of the clever configuration, reel mounting hardware
cannot be accessed, preventing removal of the reel from the rod. Of
course, the mounting screws for the rack itself are also concealed,
preventing a would-be thief from simply removing the rack.
Requiring only slightly
more mounting space than a conventional rod rack, the Gorilla
Locking Rod Rack will accommodate everything from small casting
combos to large trolling gear such as the Penn International
50-wide. The rack's main body and locking components are marine
grade aluminum and stainless steel. Durable thick thermoplastics,
applied as part of a proprietary 7-step coating process, protect
fishing gear from chafes and dings and minimize noise and corrosion.
Bowline Products will
soon be expanding the product line to offer a 2-rod model, perfect
for under-gunwale storage, and a 4-rod rack for spinning reels. For
