You can easily pull 4 dipseys without boards.  6 is possible, but I wouldn't do it.  I guess I'm thinking I would never put all my eggs in one basket. Let me explain ... I would never have a situation where we had all my rods as dipseys.  I'd always want something else in the mix like rigger lines or long lines (copper/lead).  As you know, conditions change from early morning to afternoon ... and you never know what the fish will switch to.  Plus there's a strategy ... have the riggers (weights) draw in fish ... then they fall back to dipseys and then to long lines ...

 

But if you do want to try this ... I wouldn't do it with inline boards, that is suicide ... if you have to retrieve that rod, it will be very difficult to pop the dipsey until that board is in the boat.  That's gonna need some serious muscle power to pull the board and closed dipsey in at the same time.  I'd only do that with big boards off the outriggers.
