    Must Have items!!!

    So as the title says, what are your must have things in your boat? I use my boat to fish some, trot lines, bank poles, pole fishing, but most weekends are spent going to the beach with friends and my kiddos. So, love to hear what you all think are the must haves in your boat!

    Moeller 12 Gallon LPT

    I have those for my gas cans, this one seems like it will work fine without, it has a vent that raises up on the cap to run, and close when not. Shall give it a whirl for a summer and see if needed an extra vent is necessary
