Anyone add a cupholder to their Wilderness Sytems kayak? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have a Wilderness Sytems Tarpon 160 kayak that desperately needs a cup holder so I have a place to put my beer while I fish. (It's the style from a few years ago before Wilderness Systems got smart and started adding a molded cup holder hole.)

Has anyone found a good way to add a cupholder to one of these kayaks?

I just set the keg in the back and run the hose up to where I'm sitting.

1. cut plastic cup so it is 3" tall
2. glue bottom of cup to kayak.
3. put beer inside of your new cup-cup-holder.
4. easily removable when you no longer want it.
