Nice tackle storage rack. That does not look like BerleyPro, Where did you buy the materials to build it?

Thanks, It's 3d printed. I think the berleypro is kydex, and is open from the back, it requires a continuous face of the kayak to serve as a back to the "bin".
. I was considering having a buddy mold it for me out of kydex but there is no good way to join the seams other than rivets and I wanted a 1 piece enclosed bin that was a little "cleaner". Additionally the berley pro would have required me to screw into my nice pretty fiberglass deck and I wasn't interested in doing that.

I can print any variation of these to fit different tools, and containers. If anyone is interested, let me know.

ah yes, the endless saga of DIY fixes, innovations, endless possibilities. I will be doing several soon since I will be back on the water soon. In the past, I have done seat mods, fish grippers, leashes, hook removers, Making everything watertight, motor mounts,carts/dollys,PVC pipe and fittings are my friends. Oh and not to forget the formidable bungie!

Not really new or innovation, but for easy loading from rear of a sedan I use an inverted kayak cart (from Walmart) on the trunk in tandem with the suction cup channel loader from Malone on the rear window. This keeps the boat from making direct contact with the car while loading, providing two fulcrums if you will. Lash them together to prevent sliding.
