[QUOTE="SrPhatness, post: 126113, member: 2387"] Got my pole storage figured out. I mounted the pole holders on the left side on the front of the bench so the top will slide under it. That way the top supports the reels while the weight of the reels keeps the top in place. :) All of the wiring is hooked up and everything is mounted to my liking, except the transducer. I mounted it pretty close to where the motor will be :x . I used marine GOOP to mount the transducer so I is going to be a pain to get off, and the mounting bracket may not come off in one piece. So I'm going to wait until I get a motor and as long as the prop doesn't come to close to it I'm going to leave it there, and see how it affects the performance. Then I'll move it if it's too bad. I hope not. I really like the way the fish finder slides side to side. I has already proven very convenient. I like the fact that the seats are low enough that the boat cover will go on over them. And like wise the seats will hold the center of the cover up so water and snow roll off. :D I'm thinking about making my own bimini cover out of PVC, but we will see about that. I need to patch the boat cover. It has a few small holes, and one big one. I was thinking maybe getting a tarp, and rolling some sort of glue on the backside. Just like a big sticky patch. Just waiting for a motor and some batteries. [/QUOTE]
