  • TheBow or Front Storage comes with a 13" by 30" hatch that allows the storage of large items such as sleeping bags & clothes. This is ideal for those long outings - a three day trip to Montana's Smith River for example. An optional tray limiting the depth of the storage can be installed for easy access to smaller items.

  • The Front Pedestal Storage can either be used for dry storage or as a live well.

  • TheSide Storage Compartments on either side of the rope seat allow easy access for the rower. The 11"x13" hatches can be fitted with a liner to limit the depth and keep small items such as binoculars or a camera at close range. These compartments can also be fitted with a 6" round hatch providing access to a rear passenger or to fit a shot gun with a 30" barrel from the rear.

    In addition to the significant dry storage space, the Rear Open Storage can be used as a temporary trash holder, or to store other items.
