Default NEW Fitchin' Macheen!!

Introducing the NEW Box 7.5















Chances of me havin' a boat to take to the beach this year are lookin' pretty slim...we leavin' Mon so I decided better put something together...the old wagon will have to do...gonna be fishin' a good 2 miles from the house, so gotta be prepared...
Ample fish-cooler space, angled rod-holders, attached filet- knife and cast-net...

Bow-mounted drink-holders...field-tested for beer...can only speculate they'll also work for water, sports drinks and the like...the 7.5 spec is w/tow-handled fully extended...

Cast-net box hangs on the transom of the craft...

Cutting-board and knife a MUST

Cutting-board hinged on top of net box via two nylon straps

Plenty of leftover space for tackle-boxes and more carefully considered stuff...all riding on soft, deep sand tested tires (I pulled the kids across these same sand-dunes on theses same tires 20 years ago) the Box-7.5 is fully equipped for a day's fishing!!...




Since these pics, I've added bucket, beach chair and umbrella....any suggestions of what more needs to be added to the Box-7.5 from all you guys who've spent countless hours shore fishing will be appreciated...

Looks good REEL....I love surf fishin.

I always like a loop of rope through the handle to let me get out front a little more so I dont run over my heels with the cart.

If I were gonna be down there when you are I'd have taken you out on my V.

How much " horse power " does it take to move that rig through soft sand ?
