I have been thinking the same thing.
Got a seaark on the way and want to use the rod holders I have now in the track.
Using driftmaster pro holders now.
really dont want to drill a bunch of holes like I have in the past.

I make my own mounts. I attach my rod holders (Bee Readys) to a piece of 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 angle iron. I then attach the angle iron to the boat using the proper carriage bolts that fit the track. You can move the rod holders where ever you need them or remove them if you want. Use it to attach the pro stick for crabbing trotlines also.

There is also a guy out near Lexington (I think), Fishbite rod holders. I think he custom makes bases for the track system. From what I understand he is a good guy to deal with and fairly local too.

Thats what I plan to get. Will get 10 to 12 of them.
Need to talk to them about lefthanded 1/2"
I believe the Fishbite boys are in Mocksville.

I talked to them at some point.
They were a little more and out of stock at the time I looked last.

Yes sir, you are correct. I was trying to go off memory. I must be getting old lol. I knew he was a NC vendor.

Also, if you are on facebook, check out NC Marine Fabrication. I don't have FB but have seen the guys page. His name is Austin, and I'm pretty sure he has made complete rod holder assemblies for the track system.

What seaark?
Are all the rails the same on the seaark for the VJ, MV and bay?
I want to vet some on order.

im not sure about them being same or not but I did talk to alan at fish bite and he seems to be easy to deal with and the prices on the mount were less than monsters-- Ive ordered one from monster and will see how it works and then make a decision- He said he would mount them and a rod rack as a package deal if I would meet him half way with the boat,and no charge for the labor-- pm me if youd like his number and here is video and he sent some pics I can send you

I have a Rivercat 200 CC, the bolts slide in the grooved slot, set the holder on it and tighten the bolts. I did have to drill out the very end of the track to get the bolt heads to fit in the slot. it was very simple, and they hold very well. I use driftmaster rod holders, and just unscrew them when im not using them.

That was my plan.
I have several holders and wanted the track system and able to remove or move holders to fit need and not need to drill a ton of holes.
Sounds like a plan.

Monster come with SS bolts and lock nuts, fishbite do not if I remember and making the difference in price.
