Hey Johnny,

I've been using this tray for over 4 years now ... w/ no issues.
I've never had an issue with the canvas cups neither ... have you?

What are the issues that you know of ... should I be worried?

Four years i would say there are no issues..Thanks

I followed your lead when I cut (2) two more 1.5” ABS spreaders at 28.75” each.
I’m building (3) three prototype hard-trays for my Cumberland FT. I hope they pan out! $$$$ lol

All it needs is a cup holder mounted to it and maybe supports mounted from the spreader bar back to the other cross bar and a little black paint.

The Cumberland cup holder work great if you keep the tackle boxes shorter than 14 inches.
However a cup holder would look cool on the tray.

How much does your Cumberland weigh fully loaded with that tray on?
