hey guys,

 

So i moved to vancouver and picked up the crabbing hobby. I got myself a 4 man inflatable boat and it has been awesome. problem is, with 2-3 people AND all of the gear , there is not much room for anything else. So I found myself a small box and mounted it down in the back of my little floaty. 

 

heres a picture of the finished result

I like it! I would only have one concern (if I may!). "IF" that box were to somehow end up over the side (worse case boat flip) then all of your gear is gone. It doesn't look like you have any method of keeping those lid flaps locked closed. Other than that, great idea and functional. Just as an afterthought, I wonder if it would be worth gluing on some foam on the inside for boyancy incase it did go over and fill up with water

 

Cheers,

Cameron
