Well I just bought a 1988 21' starcraft center console with a 88 special on the back. Upgraded from my 16' starcraft and now I'm looking for ways to store my fishing gear. When I bring my friends they all bring their fishing boxes and it covers the boat and now we don't have walking room. Has anyone made a gear box to be hidden and allow walking room. I have a 6" or 8" x 3' x 2' size storage area in the back and was thinking about making pull out drawers on rollers. Anyone have any different approaches.

Re: Custom gear box

Are you looking for something like this?<br /><br /> http://www.iboats.com/mall/index.cg...**=525033389&**********=58557661&view_id=4259 <br /><br />I was thinking about the same thing..but wanted to do it myself..I figure...go buy a bunch of Plano storage boxes (like the ones shown) and build a compartment with little runners to slide them into. You can keep it simple by using a bungee cord or rope instead of the door. <br /><br />-JMW

Re: Custom gear box

i think the door is a good idea, about 10 minutes in a good chop and that tackle will be all over the deck.
