IMG_20200612_162255.jpgI find that drinks in standard 12oz cans simply slip out of these beverage holders into the the lake. These are mounted on the stern pulpit of my C-315. I am wondering if there is supposed to be some sort of insert that goes with them. The zip-ties I put on them work, but they do seem a bit tacky.

Can you just put the drink in a can kozie? That might keep it from slipping out and keep it cool longer too.

Google "cupholder inserts", the are hundreds to choose from.

Even ones that light up.

Good luck

I cut down a wet towel wipe holder and put in the cup holder and zip tied it to the holder.

They are sized for Kozies which seems to be the can coolers of preference among sailors. we get them for free.

My 310 has white plastic inserts, as far as I can tell that is how it came new.

I purchased these, although I don’t remember paying this much so maybe they were cheaper 5 years ago or maybe I got them on sale.

May not be the solution you are looking for, but these are what we use. Our son gifted us a set with our boat name.
