hay airslot,what's inside those transome top hatches.i have the same boat but my hatches open & look stright down to the bottom of the hull.thnx.

Re: Enclosure done, with pics...
 

Mine have inserts (boxes) that sit in them. They are big enough to hold a few lures or tools, or a spray bottle of simple green. Id guess about 12" deep.

Mike, apparently your inserts got away :-/ ... they seem to be hard to find, so ya might wanna start thinkin' of alternatives ;) ... good luck and if ya come up w/ something clever, let us know :D ...

Re: Enclosure done, with pics...
 

I remember looking at a V20 somewhere that the owner had replaced them with bathroom small trash cans .

Re: Enclosure done, with pics...
 

Check the dollar stores, they have all kinds of plastic containers
that might slip in.

Where did you get the bow ring attachment for your gps? I'd like to mount mine the same way but I can't find one locally.

I haven't looked real hard on the net.

Re: Enclosure done, with pics...
 

It's called a rail mount, stock item at boaters world.

It's worked well for about 5 years now. IT will stay there until I get an arch ;D

This looks like what Slot used...of course the moron at West Marine who set up this pic had the mount turned 90* from where you'll use it ...

You won't need the adjustable one and ya might wanna shop around...West's prices are normally higher than everybody else...


Hey Slot...lookin' back thru your NEW TOP(NICE) pics and your new rod-holders...do you ever pull any Side-Planer boards?...they're makin' some real light weight ones these days that work REALLY NICE!!... 8) ...

Re: Enclosure done, with pics...
 

Side Planers...looked around and found this link...my buddy w/ the Everglades has a pair of these...I like 'em better than the ones I use ...

Re: Enclosure done, with pics...
 

Man, the guy that took those photo's for West must have alot of boating experience ???

I've not messed with planer boards yet. As I understand it, the light ones work great for inland waters, but for the chop we get on the Chesapeake or the OCean (even worse) they don't work well. The boards they use over here are heavy and 3-6' long made out of wood. Those are a pain to store on any boat. ::)

Re: Enclosure done, with pics...
 

thanks air and reel,

I haven't had any time to make a run to Boaters world, west or basspro. Those are the only 3 in my area for major boat supplies and their all in the next state.

I'm gonna need to make a run up to there. I have the antenna cable hole and I was looking for a double plug wire plug so I don't have to cut a new hole. I would think there's got to be one of those out there also.

AIr, Where do you live? I saw where you were talking about fishing in chesp bay.

Re: Enclosure done, with pics...
 

I'm not far from Chincoteague, but about 70 miles north of the CBBT.
