Works for me too. A single box with all the goodies crammed in. hooks, weights, swim bait, etc.

Fits in the hull. Mostly float between feet or in the milk crate.

I found a small "soft" cooler that is ment to hold a 6 pack or a lunch. It fits 3 small plano boxes nice and snug. Cool thing is that the cooler has a handle with snaps so its easy to secure to any available eyelet. Little tip to.. I keep a small tupperware with a little bit of babypowder in it. Before iput things back in the plano I toss em in with the babypowder to remove any moisture. Waterproof planos are awesome.....if they aren't trapping water in

this is everything. my dikes and other tools i carry in my pfd and side pockets (hobie revolution). but these are my tackle boxes. nothing fancy just the stock hobie bucket and a converted tackle box which was my daughters bead and necklace box. i don't take much with me. oh, and my live well full of whatever bait i catch..

swimbaits and jigs, irons for yoyo'ing and tossing on the surface and live bait for tolling and soaking.. all my hooks are in there and most importantly, UNI BUTTER.. gotta have the butter..

Revo--tight space. Several Plano waterproof 3640 series boxes fit nicely thru the center hatch. 11x7, even the deeper one fits okay. Since they have o-rings, you can bungie 1 or 2 to the deck in front of you if you want.

Can use 3740/41 series depending on your yak.

U can use a leash/cord to keep them from sliding in the hull, or velcro, or glue 2 pieces of pool foam transversely inside the hull, one under the seat, the other against the mirage drive well, which keeps stuff from sliding out of reach.

I use a piece or two of sidewalk chalk in each box to absorb water to prevent rust.

I like the sidewalk chalk idea.
