Trident T24-3 Suction Tank Holders

[mmcdanie]

Has anyone purchased the Trident T24 series of tank holders? They come in 2, 3, and 4 tank configurations and have "industrial" suction cups. I like the idea of being able to remove or change the location of the holders but not at the expense of having the suction cups let go and a series of tanks falling over. Any input woud be appreicated.
Tank You.

These appear to actually be Roll Control from East Coast Plastics. I use a different model (bolted on) on my Boston Whaler. They work pretty well, but occasionally on a real good bounce they will spit the tank out if there wasn't also a bungee cord.

Thanks for the input. I'm planning on using a bungee cord.

The Trident TA24-4 is now in place. I'll give it a good test this weekend.

How well is the suction cup model working out for you?

We have two sets of four by Roll Control and I was nervous about the holding power of the suction so opted for the bolt on method.

Hope they are working great.

Cheers

So far so good. I had one side come loose once since February. The other side has not come loose since installed. I have the holder mounted on the rear inside transom so it does not get much boucing action there.

I used them for about 3 months, for the gulf they are terrible and impossible to keep in place except on smooth days. Ended up removing the suctions cups and mounting the rails fixed to the bulkheads.
