 cheap and simple under hatch storage Reply  Edit


well I wanted to add some storage to the boat for them bags of baits and hooks you will always use...couldn't see me spending a lot of money (living in Canada sucks when you have to order from USA) so I got this idea this one foot 5 clip strip cost 2.60 + the cost of double sided 3 M tape...it holds bags of baits real well and if you are worried just make sure the seal of bag is in the clip and I highly doubt they would fall out

Good idea. I work part time at a grocery store so I grabbed a couple of the hanging clip strips that we have there and am going to install them to use to hang soft plastic. hook, sinker bags.

They have to be installed first, but should just be a couple pieces of double stick tape put on the back and ready to go.
