Bait Tank... Just the Tank.

[FlyFishinYakr]

How much is your time and effort worth? How experienced are you with DIY? How many trips/mistakes are you willing to make?
Of the many threads I've read here, I have noticed that most of the guys who do build themselves have prior experience in building accessories for their Kayaks or other projects. I thought about building a bait tank a couple years ago when the Costco out here first carried the "Vittles Vaults" for $20. I started to think, I'm not too confident/talented with such endeavors and how many of the Vaults I might go through because I made a too large/many holes (etc.) how many trips I was willing to make to Home Depot for forgotten or wrong sized parts and then online purchases for items not carried by HD (like timer/on/off switch, bilge pump etc.).
After buying/outfitting my '12 Outback from OEX SSB (ANDY ) and reading/seeing some of the customizing the guys down at OEX Mission Bay (Props to CJ and Jeff) have done for their customers I wouldn't hesitate to recommend just buying from them since you're in that area (or online). PLUS if you read some repair threads done buy OEX they stand behind their work. I've read threads where customers have gone back with some issues with wiring, connectors switches etc. and have repairs done, no muss no fuss and little (maybe just charge for parts) to no charge, depending on the age of the item or install.
My opinion may be a little biased but I doubt anyone here would disagree with my assessment of these Stores and there dedication to customer satisfaction!
I wanted to be the first to buy the new'15 Outback, but now I'm patiently waiting on HOBIE to make a new bucket for their rectangular hatch option for the '15 Outback as my fly cases won't fit in the tackle management slots and while waiting I'm searching the $ stores for a plastic storage box that might fit the depth of the new Outback, BUT I WILL be purchasing from OEX SSB as soon as they/I find a solution.
