I added a cutting board very similar to (easyday) you can buy those really cheap at a $.99 store or walmart. The rod mounts I use Scotty's some flush mount (with lock, easier to remove holder and stay locked in) I prefer Scotty to Ram because when you loosen a Ram mount to adjust it you need both hands to hold the mount in the position you want it to stay in while tightening the adjustment knob. I also added a couple more of the flush rod holders to the rear deck behind the seat. So there are 4 rod holders built into the Kayak in rear and 2 are off-set so the poles don't hit each other. I got that idea from my X13. That way if I choose not to use my crate in the rear I still have multiple rod holder in the rear. Get a trolley anchor it comes in handy in the bay, lakes and even tying up to kelp and positioning the kayak to the current. On somethings I have used stainless steel screws, washers and nuts and on harder access or thing you are not going to ever remove use the Aluminum pop rivets.
