Just wondering if where i have put the DR in the pic is a good spot and then have the rod where it is in the pic when in use? Any problems with where it is?

Also, I need to put a spacer between the mount and the boat because of the lip on the gunnel. I was thinking of just cutting a nylon cutting board down to size, would this do? And im guessing i need to put some duralac around the screws yeah?

Dicko that should be spot on, and as you said apeice of cutting board to space it up would work perfect. On mine I have removed the rod holder on the boom and have arod holder on the gunnel as you have.
