Docktail Butler Boat Table with Rod Holder Mount
Product Details
The Docktail Butler: A Boat Table That Holds It All
The Butler keeps your drinks, food and gear organized and within reach, from the sandbar to the dock. Deep, spill-resistant slots hold tumblers, cans, bottles and party cups, even in chop, and the flat serving area has room for plates and food prep.
Why boaters choose the Butler
- Deep cup and bottle slots. Designed for modern drinkware, not shallow rings that let drinks tip.
- Built-in storage. Dedicated spots for bottles, tumblers, a cutting board and paring knives, plus room for snacks, sunscreen and phones.
- Your colors, your name. Choose two marine decking colors from 3,000 combinations to match your boat, and add your boat name in one of four fonts. We send a proof for your approval before engraving.
- Marine-grade King StarBoard. UV-stable, won't rot, and stands up to saltwater and sun. Stainless steel hardware.
- Made in the USA.
Rod holder mount
The included all-angle adjustable rod holder mount sets the table level whatever angle your rod holder sits at, even vertical. The Butler top also works with our pontoon rail, pedestal and SeaSucker mounts, so one table can move between setups.

5 reasons boaters choose the Butler
Drinks, food and gear organized on one table, made in Florida, USA by a boating family.
Deep cup and bottle slots that stop spills
Unlike flat boat tables, the Butler has deep cup and bottle slots that hold tumblers, 12 oz cans, bottles and party cups. A flat serving area in the center handles plates, snacks and food prep, so drinks stay put even in chop.
Your colors, your boat's name
Pick two decking colors from 3,000+ combinations to match your boat, then add your engraved boat name in one of four lettering styles. Prefer to keep it simple? In-stock standard colors ship in 1 to 2 business days.

“I have never seen anything like this for boats. There are never enough cup holders. This also gives a spot to put snacks. It held on through rough waves and worked great!”
“Best thing we’ve bought for the boat. We use it all the time for our sunset floats with friends. Beautiful, functional and well built. Thanks for a great product!”
“Thank you for making the perfect accompaniment to our boat! We’ve tried many ways to make sure drinks, etc. don’t spill. This is absolutely the best approach. Thank you!”
“Perfect with my grill on the boat. I wanted this for years. Love it!”
“The Docktail Bar gives us plenty of extra space when entertaining and serving lunch. The best part is that we don’t have to serve food on the same table where my husband cuts bait!”
“I got this item for my dad’s birthday and he absolutely loves it! It looks great on his Boston Whaler, decent weight but easy to move, convenient for drinks and food, and easy to move away from the bait and tackle and gutting table!”
“The Docktail table is super handy. Assembly is 4 screws in predrilled holes. Fits and works exactly as shown in the pictures. I put a paper towel roll on a bungee cord and hang that under the table and you’ve got everything you need. Next addition to mine will be a wire or hook to attach a trash bag and we should be all set. Don’t hesitate to buy this - it works great!!”
“I ordered the Docktail Butler for a Christmas present for my boat, it shipped immediately and I received it in 2 days. Easy to install the rod holder mount and very sturdy! I am impressed and looking forward to using it on the sandbar soon!”
“The communication from start to finish was great. I ordered this around Christmas and the owner made it a point to ensure it arrived in time. I loved the fact they offered customization and various finishes to the table. I was able to get it to match the boat flooring and the name of the boat!!! Fair pricing (usually everything for boats are expensive and I was surprised it wasn’t LOL!) Highly recommend.”
“Pouring drinks and keeping snacks organized on the boat was a challenge, our cooler has a cushion so it acts as a seat requiring that person to constantly get up and down to get what we needed to make drinks. NO MORE. We got the Butler, it fits perfectly in our rod holders and the cut outs are perfect for holding snacks.”
“Recently purchased this for my husband’s bday. He was over the moon and now I get amazing boat drinks. Win all around!”
“Positive experience. We get lots of compliments from other boaters. Hopefully they will visit the site too and buy this awesome bar/table. We love it!”
“We love the Docktail Bar! It leaves so much more room on our BW Montauk 170 when entertaining.”
“Love it, it fits perfect on the Dinghy and is a fun addition to our group when we stop and enjoy a nice afternoon sitting in knee deep water on Lake Michigan”
“I purchased the Innovative Boat Table for my wife for Mother’s Day. Steve was great to work with and turned the order around in time for me to take delivery before the big day. He actually responded to my questions on a Sunday which was greatly appreciated.”
“I ordered the wrong thing at first and called them. No sooner did I say I ordered the wrong product and I needed for Father’s Day they immediately sent me a new one and quickly invoiced me. I think the product was in the mail before they even received my payment balance and had their item back. They are very nice to deal with. Not to mention the product was able to be used on Father’s Day. I cannot thank you enough. Thank you again.”
“I love it, best boat invention ever. It brings the party to the boat.”
“We love our DocTail’s Bar and our friend love it too. We love the easy access to all our favorite libations!”
“It was a bday gift & my husband loved it. Due to hurricanes & weather we have not used it. We put it on the boat & it looks great & we can’t wait for a nice day to go out & enjoy it. Keeps things in place & it will be make for lots of fun conversations as we gather around to eat & drink!!”
“Amazing! Thank you for a smooth purchase, delivery and amazing customer service! We will purchase from you again in the near future!”
“Love it.. easy to assemble.... provides extra serving space without compromising deck space”
“The docktail butler bar looks exactly as pictured. We can’t wait to use it this season and seems like it will be perfect for our boat.”
“Great product. Great service.”
“Easy to use very universal”
“Excellent from start to finish”
“Haven’t used it yet. But will respond when we do.”
Butler questions
What's the difference between the Butler, Utility and Caddy?
The Butler combines a flat serving area with deep cup and bottle slots and storage, which is why it's our best seller. The Utility has the most flat serving space and holds cups and gear, but no bottles. The Caddy is the compact option for drinks and bottles where space is tight.
Which mount do I need?
Rod holder for center consoles, sportfish and bowriders with rod holders. Pontoon rail for square pontoon rails. Table top replacement if you already have a pedestal table. A straight-leg or angled side pedestal for a dedicated sit-down table. Suction mounts for smooth countertops. See the Boat Table Mount Guide or use the Table Finder.
Will I have to drill into my boat?
Only for the straight-leg pedestal, which bolts to the deck, and the angled side mount, which bolts to a vertical surface like the base of a bench or bow seat. Rod holder, pontoon rail, suction and table top replacement mounts need no drilling.
Is it stable while the boat is moving?
Yes. The rod holder mount adjusts to sit level in your rod holder and locks in place, and the deep cup and bottle slots keep drinks from tipping in chop.
Can I move the Butler to a different mount later?
Yes. The Butler top fits every Docktail Bar boat mount, so you can add a second mount and use one table in more places.
Will it hold up in saltwater and sun?
Yes. It's made from King StarBoard, a marine-grade polymer with built-in UV protection, with stainless steel hardware. It won't rot, rust, crack or delaminate.
Can I match my boat's colors and add my boat name?
Yes. Choose from 3,000+ color combinations and add an engraved boat name for $89 in one of four lettering styles. Custom colors and names take about 4 weeks. Standard white and black tables ship faster.
How fast does it ship?
In-stock tables ship in 1 to 2 business days from Florida, USA.
What if I order the wrong mount?
Unused mounts exchange free. We'll ship the right one with a prepaid return label for the original.
What's your return policy?
Every order is covered by our 90-day satisfaction guarantee, including custom colors and names, with a prepaid return label.
Can I pay over time?
Yes. Qualified buyers can pay in 6 monthly payments at 0% APR with Shop Pay at checkout.
