I promised that before the boat got launched this year, we would have organized tackle storage out of the way and not taking up space in the cabin. Here it is. Wood is Iroko, a MUCH less expensive alternative to teak, finished with 2 coats of oil. The hatches are recessed to just above the rim edge to lower the profile but keep it from pooling water. Five Plano trays fit in each bucket which, as you ca see, is removable for access to the empty spare fuel tank area and the the forward space where some boat systems are located. Much beter than reaching through a 6'' deck plate!
