[QUOTE="Nussy, post: 197091, member: 2148"] Thanks guys, This first boat will be pretty plain. Just trying to keep the cost down so I can sell it a little easier and make some of my investment back. I should have it done this weekend. Boat #2 will be a little nicer. I live on a small lake and I plan to use the 2nd boat there. It will have the bike seats and adjustable peds. I want to keep the deck clean so that I can pull the seats off and the kids can use it as a swim raft. The plan is for some underfloor storage for the battery, maybe an onboard charger, life jackets, tackle, etc. I was thinking about putting in some flush mount rod holders in the deck that insert at an angle so that they would point off the deck edge(something like this) [ATTACH type="full" alt="s7_021008_imageset_02.jpg"]22904._xfImport[/ATTACH] .....but I'm not sure how that would work. I'm worried they might get in the way for casting and landing fish. I'm the kind of guy that goes out with 4-5 rods instead of changing baits. Second thought was to have a velcro strip(or bunjee) on the deck and just strap them down. I'm also considering a small railing on boat #2...either corner railings or a just a kick plate of 1x1 Angle to keep things from falling off the edge.. [/QUOTE]
