    I have similar boat. It’s not an issue, these boats have pumps for each fish box. Water can be easily pumped out.

    Sometimes it works out for fish... I remember once I caught a coho, I put it in fish box, it had water in it due to rain. After a few minutes it revived. I heard it splashed around so much I released it. It gained back its energy and was good to go!

    Nice work on keeping the boat looking nice and clean. Someone else was just posted a boat here but couldn’t bother to clean the floor looked like garbage. I just pass those by like it it’s not there. Boat looks great good luck with sale!

    GM did the t-top come on your boat or is it something that you added? Would love to find one just like that when I can recover some $$. 

    Hi the T-Top came with the boat when I bought it. I know some mentioned gimbal mounts instead of drilling. I tried that the issue is with the 17-18’ foot fishing platform the stern got too crowded and I found I didn’t have enough space to run 2 dipseys, like wire and braid (on each rod) or combo like dipsey and lead core. I found that the hard way with a few tangles. Nothing more annoying than wasting time trolling a tangle. While drilling is a commitment adding the 2 cannon tracks was the best thing I did! It gave me so much more room to work with. Because if you use the cannon or traxtech rod holder (or similar product) you can angle them down so the rods are parallel to the water, this gives you a rod length of extension out each side of the boat. If I were to change anything I wish I installed longer cannon tracks and also ones for my Downriggers (at stern). Because then you can change out your Downrigger by simply sliding them out. You still may need to use planner boards to move your dipseys and lead core or copper further out to the side of your going to troll with more than 1 rod on either side. Hope this helps. Take up the offers to go out and learn from experienced fisherman!
