Livewell/leaning post manufacturers in Florida
« on: April 28, 2020, 02:58:08 PM »
Hey guys, long-time member but it's been a few years since I posted.

I'm looking for a fab company that makes their own leaning post/ livewells. I won't be going to Hammerhead, but something similar.

I'm aware of the Birdsall Marine, Nautical Design guys,etc. but I'm looking more for a local type person. Central Florida say from Homosassa south to Ft Myers on the West Cost and maybe New Smyrna to Stuart on the East (I'm right in the middle lol).

If you guys have anyone you know that does good work, please let me know.

Are you looking for someone that can do both or are able to split the two apart? Panga in Sarasota is a company you might want to check out.

Leaning post w/livewell....not a typical combo "local" fabricators will tackle.  The plastic to metal interface is a tricky process most often reserved for industrial-like companies, not the local fabricator you're talking about.  But Hammerhead is an example of a local fabricator.  Are you wanting to design the leaning post yourself, then have it fabricated and molded to a specific gallon livewell?

CM Marine Products makes a couple of leaning post livewells.  They’re in Lake Placid, FL.  They cost a bit less than some. I called them, they had what I wanted and I picked it up at a good price.
