Unusual Attitude

I am sure you all have done a bunch of stuff to your boats. I just got mine and added the things I thought it needed. Pics will follow soon
1. Added a Magma fillet table to the rear wall of cockpit that fits into a flush mount rod holder centered on the top side. I think this is the best one, maybe.
2. Added a spring type strut to hold open the bait hatch.
3. Removed the two center rod holders from the leaning post and installed cup holders in their place. I have the backrest and just dont need more vertical rod holders with the t top and side racks.
4. Added some rubber feet so the front hatch doesnt hit so hard when I close it.
5. Added knife/pliers holder on splash well.
6. I had to add the required stainless bottle opener next to the starboard jump seat backrest.
7. Put in the electronics and stereo.
8. rewired trim tab controls
9. Had a big cushion made for the casting platform ($400 installed) (The dealer paid for this as part of the deal).
10. Added some rod holders that angle out away from the gunnels by the rear cleats. They are removable.
Future mods,
1. I am adding a hook and latch deal to hold open the rear door for when we are swimming.
2. Adding some custom made Isenglass windows and side panels for splash and rain protection
3. Replacing the bolts holding deck hardware on so they stop making rust stains.
4. Going to rewire the boats factory bus bar, it is very overloaded and sloppy.
5. I need some kind of screen over the live well airator(?) It pulls water in from the tank and mixes it with fresh air however the bait fish keep getting stuck on the inlet since there is no cover, just an open pipe.
6. Covering the cheapo factory cup holders on console so they dont get ripped off by my knees.
