(no tripping over your console, and makes ingress/egress a breeze).* Brand new Bob's Jack-plate (pump mounted under captains chair keeping in clean and easy access).* Brand new Lenco trim-tabs.* 2 live wells/bait wells properly plummed and valves allow the use of 1 or both.* Storage: Forward hatch, floor hatch (I used for bait net), Under bench seat, and 3 rear hatches.* Custom built 2 compartment cooler (keeps your fish on 1 side, drinks clean on the other).
