in the sea ox i got the idea of using pvc tubes with screw on covers, i put a number on each to say what size is in it, they work great and i can carry plenty! i have the tubes in a milk crate and just take out what i need, kept all nice and neat and sizes separate.

W/all the talk about tackle stations and the high cost of Starboard, cam's pic made me think of HYBRID construction...frame and drawers of wood, then FACE the drawers and trim w/starboard...as said above, 1/4" starboard is not so expensive and would be great for trim & facing...

that's where I put a tackle drawer in my 1st one back in '99 and you're right...IDEAL location...

It would be an invoved project, no doubt, but would it be feasable to convert the slider into a hinged swinger?...just thinkin' out loud here...

Default Tackle Bolster

Reel

Sounds like your talking about a bolster. I have one in V20 that I suspect would work well in place of your captain chair, that way you could still keep the back to back seating and still get a tackle station. Mine is made of fiberglass and teak, but after seeing Ridges rig. I agree with it would look better in starboard!
