I want to replace the original 7 rod rack with something that holds more rods and easier to get them in/out..Anyone have any suggestions..The boat is a 1999 TX21,same hull as a TR.

I made my own model after the ones in the newer toons. I can now hold 13 rods in it. Made it out of plywood and painted it white. Used 1.5 plastic golf tubes for the rod tip end.

Here's a link to pictures the change I did on my TR21
the one I used came out of a 21x boat
It worked but took a lot of cautious fitting and refitting

yes both pieces came out of a 21x
The handle end is actually the same plastic a carving board is made out of. I did use an aluminum strap to support the back side of it

Might try to make some myself out of cuttting board just dont know where ton get it.
I like many have used golf club tubes, but need bigger ones for spinning rods. Bigger tubes are not easy to find. After weeks of searching, I finally found a company with lots of tube options. Did I find it here on BBC? Probably! Regardless, check out this selection of tubes:
