I'm guessing the holes in the deck of the Red Rockets are for accessory handles?

Can anyone confirm this please

Yes I believe they're for BOP style race handles for dragging the board into the water in a beach start. Did the handles not come in the box?

They (the holes) are there just in case you want to fit your own BOP style handles.. You just need some webbing and s/s screws to make your own.. I'm pretty sure they don't come with the board and I'm guessing 99% of people won't bother.

Thanks for the heads up guys,

Hi Flaker,

The holes aren't threaded, they are for self tapping screws. Try an 8 gauge screw about 3'4" long (allowing for thickness of hose (or whatever) and washer).

Hi Guys,

The holes are for stainless steel 316 self taping screws or similar and the right size is 12 gauge, length depends on the handle thickness 5/8 worked for us.

We used a dolphin rescue board handle that Bulldogpup sourced and had to use some roofing bolt spacers to raise the handle slightly but the result looks like it was installed during manufacturing.
