I have a Hobie Tandem Island. When I fish off it, I leave the sail and one outrigger at home. I tow and store it on a trailer

Here's one

Here's the other. Well, both.

I love the outrigger on that Hobie Tandem! That looks like it would come in super handy when things get rough or to keep geat on.

Here she is

Normally, the stops for the racks are set on the top of the rack on the right or left side, in this pic they are set on the bottom of the rack so that I carry two kayaks.

Bait tank is pretty simple, it holds my night-night stick, manual bilge pump and my Go-Pro camera pole holder. You can't really see it in the pic but my game clip is also near the tank, I always put it on the right side, this is the side that I gaff my fish, I also keep my bait net on the right side

Chair area is also pretty simple, radio is always on my left clipped in the pouch, the pouch itself contains some additional stringers. The Scotty rod holder is used to hold rods when rigging, baiting or try to release/unhook a hook (Tony's idea). The right side has a Lip Gripper in the pouch, the thing with the blue handle is my de-hooker.

Forward deck is pretty simple, mirage drive leash ready to use along with the my custom made back scratcher

and my pliers which are mounted to my chair. HDS-5 is mounted on my left side within arms reach. Scotty Orca rod holders are mounted on either side, they are held down using yakattack mighty mount scotty 241 track mount kit onto a yakattack gear trak. The paddle is also kept on the left side and out of the way should I need to bring a fish on deck.

Wheelez cart for those sandy locations

I know we all have different fishing styles and kayaks but one of the suggestions I can make is to keep your deck clean and to ALWAYS keep the things you use most not only within reach but in the same spot. If I was blind folded there is a 99.999999999% chance that I would be able to find anything on my kayak right away.

There is truth to this. Gotta know where things are at a moments notice!!!

Jorge, clean, well thought out setup. A place for everything, easy access and convienent locations for all your necessary tools! I will give it a 9 out of 10. IF your turn indicators were color coordinated it would be a solid 10. Very Nice Yak.
