T-Top outrigger opinions

[ss4825]

My Parker 25 cc is scheduled to delivery middle of next month. I ordered with no T-Top as I knew I wanted a custom top and tower. Talking with my tower guy and he asked about outriggers. I’m thinking Lee sidewinders with 18’ sticks. I want to run a long and short off the riggers 2 flats off the transom and a shotgun off the tower. Anyone here have an opinion on the sidewinders or any of the other top mounted bases. Also since I'm old as dirt anyone have any experience with the carbon fiber poles?

Love my GemLux bases and my Taco 18' collapsible carbon fiber poles. They can be double rigged; although, I run 5 rods. One off each corner, one off each outrigger and one off the center rigger. The center rigger is the most productive of the 5 rods.

Good looking ride. The gemlux bases unfortunately are out of stock. I like those poles. I'll do more research but I'm pretty sure carbon fiber sticks are in my future.

I ended up going with the Lee sidewinders. Now I'm thinking 22' Rupp telescoping CF poles. Is 22' to much for a 25 cc ?

Not as long as you keep them high enough to not dip into the water when deployed and the boat is rocking.

I ended up getting the 20' CF poles from Lee as well.
