Most of the cheap ones are just that... make your own. 40 bucks, including pipe, fittings, adhesive, foam, flags and hardware. The base is slip fit and filled with expanding foam. The crossbar is cemented to keep it from twisting and is 3" close to one end to keep the base trailing properly. The large flag frame is slip fit and the bungees hold it together, it slips into the base "T". the long pipe is cemented together and screws into the crossbar. The large pipe with the eye bolt screws into the crossbar and can be filled with gravel wherever and dumped when leaving. You can use schedule 20 pipe and drain fittings which are thinner and the pipe will float a little higher and weigh a little less. I made a net that fits over the base so I can take a Styrofoam cooler and put my fish without having to go back to the boat. And yes.... I'm supposed to be working on my boat, cleaning up my garden and replacing some shingles on the roof instead of thinking about diving.
ANYONE KNOW WHY PICTURES CAN'T BE UPLOADED?
