[QUOTE="bobby_bates, post: 462402, member: 14976"] Jay, These guys know what they're talking about. Mods are great, but unnecessary ones just cost money with zero gains. Take it out for a month or so (even longer if you can stand it) and take notes on what would be nice to have vs. what you actually need. I have a Tracker 1542 and all the mods I had done have ZERO regrets. I had the same thing in mind, front deck, storage, fish/hunt two comfortable, etc... but I took out the worthless livewell and turned it into a battery compartment. You'll understand why I said that when you try to keep fish alive in it when it gets above 70 degrees; and, how are you gonna get water in it? I turned a 45qt cooler into a livewell, and that works fantastic; and easier to keep clean. Keeps water for fish much cooler as well. Link is below for the mods. Have a great time with the boat, and enjoy the adventure!!!! R, Bobby https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=41515 [/QUOTE]
