Downrigger Issue

[hodgey]

I recently purchased a used 1995 Maxum 2000 SR and want to install downriggers on it. I am quite handy however the gunnels are very narrow and there is really no way to install a 6" square mounting plate without fabrication of some kind of mounting plate. Ideally it would be removable without much trouble so that when I travel and put the cover on the mounts don't interfere as well as on just a regular boating day, the mounts are not in the way of getting in the boat. I am hoping someone has already experienced this. Aby ideas??

Thanks

I have considered these however I really don't want to go thru the upholstry if I can help it. I appreciate the idea though.

Thanks
