Additional handy storage
Got this from Boat Outfitters. Just over $40 but solved a problem. Now have tools and items in the cockpit area where I need them. Bungie cord attachment and adjustment

Nothing that shows the interior very well, and it really hasn't been out on the water the past three years except for three weeks last year...
Most pics I've taken recently were close ups of an are I wanted to document for future projects (gas tank replacement this fall) or additions. I added this footrest a couple weeks ago. I am not convinced it is going to be a permanent addition. Waiting to see if I use it enough or is more of a PITA. My being vertically challenged at 5 10 had my feet just an inch or two from the deck when I push back in the leaning post cushion. So I have always compensated by standing >90% of the time when at the helm... |

Garmin Echomap UHD 94sv It's good but I haven't really been able to utilize the sidescan as yet. I got WM to price match Cabela"s $699 price WITH transducer last year. I guess there is an upgraded ducer this year, but would I really benefit from it for my needs?? Friend was shopping for the whoile spring and best deal we saw was $799.
I had a 7" Raymarine and hated it. Then a Raymarine rep treated me like a dog when I asked some questions at RIISA one year. Sold that unit not long afterward. Some folks like Ford over Chevy. I really prefer Garmin.

Ray, go to tacklewebs.com and you will see all sorts of attachment and size options. Bound to find one that could make things work better. Our old boats could use some modern ideas that weren't around back then. I think the velcro option might be the key to add some more and store them, loaded, when getting off boat.

2:58 … ? You headed out or just coming back ? :-)
It wasn’t original to the boat,,, larger, too big for my liking…
Took it out once to access under the main hatch and never put it back…
Really like having all the deck space especially pullin pots…
Plus, after repairing the soft spots where it mounted I couldn’t force myself to drill new holes in the deck….. :-)….. |

Those tackle bags look like a great idea.
My only concern is that netting material is a SOB when you get a hook in it. Many times end up cutting it out.
I have some netting like that in a fishing bag at each end and when a saki gets loose.......errrrrrrrr frustrating
