I finally got the nerve up to cut a hole in my TR20!! The Protray is sweeeet!!! It suppose to help lower back pain and better control....Can't wait to use it!! Only took 2 hours to install and that was with 2 trips to Lowe's for some fittings....

The ProTray kit came with the tray, stainless screws, drain hose, and template to cut around...The drain hose that was included was too big. You splice into your butt seat drain...but my drain hose was smaller so I had to get a 1/4" tee and some hose...only cost $2.00 and it worked great!! VERY straight forward install...The ProTray is only $73. plus shipping... laugh ALOT cheaper than the other ones that I could find!! Call Mark at 417-862-6512 or email him at mrmiller@polyfabplastics.com He is very helpful and answered all my questions quickly!!

I have cut a few holes in Boat, It don't bother me no more.

Me and a few of my fishing buddies are about to install those in our boats.

I was leaning toward aluminum one, but now I hear that they will come apart at the seams after a while due to the boat flexing.

I think I will be leaning toward the type you installed.

Good Post.

Ya, I did a loc-r-bar a few weeks ago...so I too may gettin ok with the hole cuttin thing!! That's a good point on the flexing....never thought of it! I ordered 2 when I bought mine, one for me and one for my father in law who also has a TR20....saved on shipping too! wink For $73. it's alot cheaper than any others....and the customer service is sweeeet as well...I emailed Mark several times before I bought them and he answered all the questions...and took care of my concerns!!!
