Hello All,

Does anyone know the sku or product number for the Plano box that fits behind the seat of the Prowler 13?

Thanks!

Sebastian

I think this is what you're looking for

Plano 1612-50 Deep Storage Case

This model is 15" x 8" x 10" You might want to measure the space on the kayak just to verify. Plano also makes larger version of this case.

You can find them at West Marine and other boating stores. They are probably cheaper if you can find them at Walmart or Target.

Thanks all.

If possible, can you post pictures of your installs for FF and accessories. I am most interested in how you all are making the most use of the limited space up front.

Thanks again!

Here is what I did. I got a diamond mount for the rail and put the FF there and then put a RAM revolution in the middle spot. I also have the "tub" also. I used cut outs from an old ("Honey have you seen the cutting board") cutting board as backing for strength. I run the fishfinder off rechargeable AA batteries and keep them in a small drybag. I mounted the transducer in goop and have had no problem.

Hope this helps

Mike

When I had a Prowler I used the Plano box for the battery and my tackle. I also put the switches in the little compartment on the lid of the box.

On one of my Prowlers I put the FF forward of the center console. I used RAM and Tight-Lok articulated rod holders.

My first Prowler had a RhynoBar similar to the ones installed on the Drifter and X-Factor in the picture above. I think the RhynoBar set-up was the most effective of the various versions.

RhinoBar looks pretty cool. That would sure save a lot of space

Thanks for the quick reply guys. I appreciate the help! I bought the Scotty bar and some accessories and will give that a try. Just have to find the time to mount them and test....
