Mate Series C2030ND Combination Rod and Cup Holder 316L Stainless Steel Oval Top 30 Degree Open Bottom

The Mate Series C2030ND is a dual-use combination fishing rod and drink holder crafted from marine-grade 316L stainless steel. Featuring an oval top opening and a 30-degree rod angle, this flush-mount holder eliminates the need to cut two separate holes in your gunwale — one installation handles both jobs. A boat that would traditionally require four cup holders and four rod holders needs only four Mate Series units to accomplish the same result, reducing deck clutter and simplifying maintenance.

Key Features:

• Constructed from high-quality 316L stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance in saltwater and freshwater environments
• Oval top opening accommodates both standard beverage cups and fishing rods
• 30-degree rod angle for optimal rod positioning along gunwales or leaning posts
• Open at the bottom — no drain fitting required, water passes through freely
• Flush-mount gunwale installation with a straightforward right-angle hole-saw cut — no angled drilling required
• Compatible with optional Mate Series backing plate (sold separately)
• Sold individually

The C2030ND's genius is its simplicity on the water. When a fish strikes while you have a drink in hand, simply swap the beverage for your rod and start reeling — no fumbling for a separate holder or setting your drink on the deck. The cup holder portion of the unit sits flat (non-angled) at the gunwale surface, making retrofit and OEM installations straightforward with a standard right-angle hole saw. Winner of the 2010 IBEX Innovation Award, Mate Series combination holders are a proven upgrade for any fishing boat.
