Anyone come across a deck tote that has rubber grips on the bottom so it doesn't slide all over the place? I like to carry a spare anchor setup and several extra shots of line when anchor type fishing. I've got storage for the line but not the anchor/chain, etc.

i took a rubber flooring mat and cut some 3"x3" pieces off of it. i used some stainless bolts/fender washers and bolted it to the bottom of a milk crate on the corners. works great for my rock anchor

Thanks Fellas. I use a milk crate now and it acts like it's in the back of a pickup with a plastic bed liner.

Yes. I have the main anchor in the bow anchor locker but the spare is just in a milk crate on the deck. I start with it in the aft corner but it slides around. Mostly when its rough and we're anchored. Just need a bit of grip. I have some rubber gym flooring that I'm going to cut pads out of and put one on each corner.

That's what use when needed. It has worked great on coolers, batteries, rubbermaid totes and milk crates. Just cut to size as needed.

Not to hijack this thread but can anyone tell me where I can get an insulated/cooler tote? I have an older one with a styrofoam insert and it is the best cooler I own.

Thanks, I will check them out. I actually think it is more of an insulated shipping tote than anything.
