When you're picking fishing boat equipment, the immediate question is usually where to set down a drink without it sliding across the deck while you're busy with rods and reels. These two white Ocean Breeze Marine Accessories cup holders both answer that, but their priorities are different. The Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder Cupholder Starboard ST is the simpler drink-holder design. The higher-priced model adds dedicated phone slots on top of the same idea. The price gap between them is $35, so this head-to-head is really about whether separate phone caddies are worth it.
Quick Verdict
If you want a no-fuss drink holder at the lower price, get the Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder Cupholder Starboard ST at $29.95. If you regularly have more than one phone in play and want each one parked in its own slot, the Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder With 3 Cell Phone Holders and Storage at $64.95 is the better buy. Both are made from Starboard and come in white.

Where Each Product Wins
- Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder Cupholder Starboard ST - wins on price and simplicity. It covers the drink-holder basics for $35 less than the phone-holder model, so if the extra caddies aren't a daily need, this is the cleaner buy for solo trips or minimal setups.
- Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder With 3 Cell Phone Holders and Storage - wins on phone organization. The separate phone slots keep the captain and crew's phones visible instead of sliding into one pile, and the added organization is the main reason to step up from the basic model.
Product Notes
Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder Cupholder Starboard ST
The Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder Cupholder Starboard ST is the more straightforward option for anglers who only need a drink holder plus a place to park small essentials. It measures 9.00 inches long x 4.25 inches wide x 3.50 inches tall and is made from Starboard, a marine-grade material. The two drink openings are shaped to fit YETI tumblers, other tumblers, bottles, cans, and cozies, and the compartment is large enough for a cell, wallet, and keys. Installation is flexible: it ships with stainless steel screws and four suction cups, and the suction cups can be removed if you'd rather screw it down permanently. The limitation is the single general compartment. If you carry more than one phone or want to separate items, everything ends up in the same bin. For the lower price, that's often an acceptable trade-off.
Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder With 3 Cell Phone Holders and Storage
This version keeps the same two tumbler-friendly drink positions and white Ocean Breeze finish while solving the 'where did my phone go' problem. It adds three dedicated cell phone holders, so fishing partners can each have a visible slot, and there's still a storage compartment for a wallet, keys, and the other stuff that collects on the dash. Stainless steel screws and four suction cups are included, and removing the suction cups lets you mount it permanently. The trade-off is the price: it sits at the top of the price spread, so you're paying for the extra phone caddies and the additional organization. If you rarely carry more than one phone while fishing, the higher price is harder to justify compared with the simpler Starboard ST model. For a busy boat with multiple phones, though, the dedicated slots are worth it.
Final Choice by Use Case
Choose the Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder Cupholder Starboard ST if you want a lower-cost, clean drink holder for the boat.
Choose the Marine Boat 2 Cup Holder With 3 Cell Phone Holders and Storage if your fishing trips mean phones for multiple people and you want each one in a dedicated slot.
