What are these on an 89?

Can anyone tell me what these are on the gunnels of an 89.?

That would be a cup holder.

Open by pulling down the top... insert beer and relax...

wasn't sure if it was a cup holder or a speaker, didn't think either was a OEM item in that location either

well there you have it, it must be a late run 89 with the new goodies from the new model year, Cool

Yea, and they don't work worth a damn.

My '90 has them, as did our '92. Theyre mounted on the base of the back seat on either side, close to the floor. Not sure if that's the stock location on an '89, but I suspect it isnt.

I think the cupholders are screwed in, so they can be easily removed- but will leave behind holes in the fibergla$$.

My '89 has them in that exact spot, and I actually like them. They fold up out of the way, and the top spreads out to accomodate different size containers.
I added 2 more to the engine cover right at the floor in the carpeted area on either side of the pylon, just to hold mine and a pa$$enger's, ah, well..you know... beverage.

"B Cup"

My 95 has the recessed style holder on drivers and pa$$enger sides.
It prefers Miller Lite.

I just stick my beer in my shoe, seems to hold it up quite well.

I'm thinking, "man is it gonna be a long winter". Here it is not even October 1st, the boat's out of the water, the leaves are com'in down like cats and dogs, and the Red Sox didnt make the playoffs. I hope you guys have a lot of material for the next 7 months, or else I'm gonna go nuts. Remember Jack Nicholson in "The Shining"...that'll be me....tap tap tap on the typewriter.

Every CC is required to have a designated cup holder. I'm sure I saw it in the operator's manual. The designated cup holder should be placed up front - right next to the driver. The cup holder must always be alert, ready, and willing. You just never know when you might have to use the cup holder. A long day in the hot summer sun makes a good cup holder an invaluable accessory. A fancy cup holder is not as important as having a cup holder that is easily accessible. The best cup holders can be folded up and put away until needed.

J_I_H: NO holders on the '80. so I have the best type of holder, mrs jbear. I do hafta drink them cold ones fast so her hands don't get cold. Cold hands=bad. She's great, she'll get 'em from the cooler, hold 'em and drive the boat. Who needs holes in the fibergla$$?

Wait till you see what we are talking about in the middle of February.

A cup holder and a beer holder are 2 different animals. a cup holder holds coffee and who the hell drinks coffee on a boat.....

92 were almost over the hump, I hate this time of the year... we havnt had snow except once to this point so i know were going to have a late cold spring
