This is a pontoon with a frame. That opens up more options for what kinds of rod tubes you install and where you mount them. The big consideration is placing them where they will not interfere with oars and rowing.
In looking at the overall design of your craft, it looks like you might want to mount a few tubes along the bar behind the seat. I am attaching some pics of how others have done that.
I am also attaching a writeup on basic PVC. I use schedule 40 PVC for construction pieces that need strength. Use type 200 1" tube for rod handles...for most rods. If your rods have bigger handles you may have to go up to 1 1/4".
