With a capacity of 500 lbs, you can bring it all.

Features include a protected horizontal storage for up to six rods (two vertically; four horizontally), space for tackle boxes, three in-hull storage compartments, plus an additional large on-deck storage area for an optional livewell or cooler. The Pivoting Tackle Management System featuses a rectangular hatch just in front of the seat that conceals a mesh storage pocket and pivoting storage for two medium-sized Plano® tackle boxes (included).
