Nice and flat. Mine has a bend in the bar for when it's laid flat and the bend now sticks up above the gunnel. Huge PITA when loading up. It's at the perfect height to snatch my yam bag when stepping in the boat.

I like that setup for your open bow but I don't think I'd like the lowered top for my closed bow....I go out over the dash quite often.

Looking good.

So are you keeping this one?
