[Rhodes22-list] cup holders

[Caesar Paul]

OK Rummy; I did not ask the question, but have thinking about it as well.  I think I will go with both types gimballed one for the captain, and cup holders for crew. 
 
Keep asking the questions that others think about asking, and do not.  Referring to yours truly here.

Now this is a subject I can handle. I have tried many different devices  
including the lil suckers. They work great with plastic cups and cans, but the 
larger styrofoam cups don't fit in them. Since I am usually at the helm, I 
prefer a gimbled holder on each side hanging from the stern rail. They 
aren't in  the way of anything so nobody is getting cut or bruised during 
normal sailing  operations. For the crew, they are on their own. If they can't 
hang on to a cup  and stay in their appointed positions, they don't have any 
business being out  with me. Actually I've looked at several cup holders but 
haven't really found  anything that suited my needs. The lil suckers work 
great, but if the gelcoat  gets a little dirty or chalked, they won't grab.

ok,  I am getting used to my new boat and have worked out a lot of issues  
but
now have a really important question.  I think this one goes out  to Rummy. 
What are the preferred cup holder configurations for the Rhodes  22? 
Gimbaled hanging off the rail? suction cups to the bulkhead?  I  finally
convinced the admiral to join me for a sail today and she has  decided cup
holders are absolutely necessary.
