Does anyone have a solution for locking the large fish boxes. We don't tend catch big tuna in Lake Erie so we use these large boxes to store a lot of fishing tackle and other gear. Photo Style 1 is a latch on the stern fish box. This is the real challenge I am trying to solve. Photo Style 2 is a latch on the jump seat fish box. Could use idea for this also but I don't think this will be as hard to solve.

OK, I did not do a very good job on the photos. On my lap top you can slide the image around by using the bars on the right and the bottom. need to figure out the photo pasting thing.
Here is some feedback I received from Grady Corporate. Seems like a nice fix. OK, now how about the pull down latch on the companion seat fish boxes. Anyone have a lock for these with the same pull down style?
Here’s a link for Premier products LTD that shows a locking flush mount latch that is adjustable that would look clean and hooks under the lip of the fiberglass rain lip inside your fishbox. You will need one in the range of about 3” and this one is adjustable. This will mount in place of the center pull ring on your lid. This could be an option for you to take a look at.

Here is a link for a really nice locking hasp for the companion seats. The premier web site is a great resource for many unique hardware needs. Sometimes half the battle is just getting a link to a site that has a lot of solutions.

I guess it is all about keeping the honest folks honest or what ever that saying is. Or encouraging a potential vandal to seek out an easier target in the slip close by.
