stealth 14 rigging Q - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I tell customers that that big ol bow hatch is like the trunk of your car, 9 out of 10 trips you never open it. There may come the day where you want to slip a big fish in there and there may come a day when stowing your rods for landing will be a good idea.

The rear hatch in my opinion makes for good unlikely items needed on the water. I usually set up the battery here, good place for emergency items/first aid and a drift shoot.

Thanks guys. I been looking at you tube and googled kayak rigging as well. For now i plan on a crate in the back ( office depot is close to my house) Add 3-4 rod holders in there for things. The rest of the things i were planning on keeping in the center hatch and the smaller side hatches. I like the idea of first aid kit in the back hatch.. What does everyone keep for first aid kit on a kayak??
As for the six pack and smokes it wont work for me as i dont smoke and dont drink lol..... Yea i know im going to die healthy man.
I need to practice openning the front hatch and closing it in the ocean.. Not crazy about the seal on it. I got an idea on how to make it better and would post pics after its done.. I guess im going to start taken pics of what i do as there arent many of S-14.
