Traxstech mast mounted on the bow of my 27' Baha with the Traxstech Reels mounted at the back of my hardtop on the top of the vertical rails. I use 300' of 200lb test Woodstock Planer line on my reels with Amish outfitter snubbers and planer boards. I run 50 plus charters a summer in the eastern basin and have never had an issue with this setup.
