Looking to buy a new Cutwater 32c questions

I am looking for the best combination of fishing and cruising I can find. So far I am really sold on the 32.

My concern is that I fish offshore/nearshore and trolling is part of that hobby. The rocket launcher rod holders are bolt on and only the 2 rear corners hqbe actual rod holders. Bolt on holders are probably not going to work with tuna.

What modifications before delivery and post delivery have you done to enhance its fishing capabilities? Would also like to know about rod storage, fish boxes, etc...

Thank you for helping me out with this. I am really looking forward to my purchase and joining this community.

Mike,
I love my C32 but we use it primarily for cruising so, I can’t help with the fishing aspect.
I would move this post to the general Chat page and you should get a much better response.

Unless you are fishing for 2-300# Bluefin/Yellowfin tuna, I don't see the bolt on's as a big issue, I fish striped marlin on my CB 30 with no issue on a jig bite with the rod's in the bolt on's. First off you don't need to set the drags to sunset to hook the fish, and most the time, the rod is out of the rodholder within seconds of hook up by the angler. That said, It wouldn't be hard to install 2-4 extra 15 degree deck mounted rod holders in the gunnels. I did that on my prior mainship, and may do it on my CB 30, but so far the bolt on's have been sufficient. As for rod storage, I have racks in the roof of the salon for about 6 rods, but primarily i store them on the bed down below and keep them in the bridge rodholders when on the boat. During the season, which is coming to a close for us here in So Cal, I keep about 15 setups on the boat.
