Skool, I hate to tell you but, that must be a typo - shouldn't it be "Beer Cooler under seats Anyone?" :P

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

yeah but the beer opening should be in the front not behind the seat. lol but a beer pull out tray would be nice under the seat what ya think? Let me think on it i may could actually do that.

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

I say you just make it where a beautiful model pops out and hands you a cold one....bet you could sell alot of em!

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

I'll take two please!!!!!!

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Heck, she don't even have to be all that good lookin - just a nice tight lil bod :o :o :o (I'm soooo bad!) :-X

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Skool those really look neat...is that one on an existing V20?...insulated, they'd work for bait OR beer...enough of the latter and it'll work for both at one time :o...

If you ARE gonna make some, consider rounded (3" raduis) corners on the inside...live-bait does better w/rounded corners...and the beer could care less ::)...

I can't use 'em cause that's where my fuel tanks are...pair of 40s... ;)...

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Hey Rap, whats the radius on a can of beer?

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

B4 or after you SQUISH it?...

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

LMFAO!!!!!!!

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

that was in a C-Hawk i saw on ebay. They had them out with a gap down the sides so you could put stuff between the wall and the box. I was going to round all inside and out side corners. I was figuring how to make a tray that was in the front to hold stuff but have it dry but yet cooled from the inside of the box by the ice. maye to hold 8 to 10 cans? that would be 16 to 20 beer at a time.

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

half A$$ drawings how's this for the idea?

Gray area is the tray inside this a cut away shot of inside the yellow in the insulation.

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Thanks RAP ,

Capt. Starboard?

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Yeah, but don't leave off Chumbucket... ;)...better come up w/a title for him, too... 8)...

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Errrrr, that's okay. MJ already has plenty of titles and names for me now. Most unprintable. :o

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

LMAO!! Thats excatly what I was thinking CB!!

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

skool what would you make them out of, i was thinking about that on my v20 for both sides, storage /cooler in one and bait well with a macerator pump on the other. also it would be long enough that i could have cushions or something on the top/back so i could seat two more guy's, kids, super models ::) whatever.

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

was thinking of making first one out of wood to big so i could only glass the inside. then use it as a mold to make them out of solid glass.
make inter liner out of glass and the outer shell out of glass then foam the 2 together. then cut the hole in the side for the tray.

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Skool do ya think it would be plenty strong to sit on, ya know super models tend to get bounced around a lot

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

lol well for those who have fat buddys can first build them out of wood and glass the entire box inside and out.

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Well keep me in mind when you get your plans finalized I;m definetly interested

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

What you trying to say?? CB isn't that Fat!! ;D

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

I think he was talkin' about CB's buddy... ;D...

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Exactly! :o ;D

"Thread Jacked"...is that what I did when Franco posted the two chicks w/Norton Snagger graphics??... :o 8)...

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Yeah I'll get Franco to print off a couple of those decals and stick them inside the lid of the bait side and the beer tray too how's that?

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

here's the ones that are in my Sea Ray are they to big for your wish's or should i build V20's smaller?

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Lord Skools I cannot really tell the scale from photo but it looks about right, maybe two inches to wide, too make it a live well what would you do to run pump lines and drain line to it, cut into floor ???

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

this one does drain through the floor to a thru hull fitting. it gets it water from a brass clam water pickup under the boat. could make the bottom of ours about 3 inches above the floor for the bait box area and that way it wouldn't require going through the floor.

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

when you finish the patent and start production......

I'LL TAKE 2 ;D ;D ;D

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Hey Lord Skools, you get my super model seating er I mean seat/bait box/tackle box up and running yet, waiting for the final production line model. I only have two seats in my boat and the cooler thing ain't cutting it for me. let me know man ;D

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

thats the good thing about being the captin, you always have a seat!! ;D

The rest can fight at whats left over :P

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Been to busy to Finish it yet LOL plus still looking for the perfect super model to have her pic on the seat. Any Ideas on her looks?
Yeah MJ so true if you're the Capt. You never have to worry about the seating.

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
 

Shinnecock Jetty Rockhopper, it will work for any man, let me know if you need any more inspiration than that, I will send the medics over to check your pulse ;D

Re: Bait Box under seats Anyone?
