Boat organizer/holder for tools? - 11/27/15 05:26 PM
Anyone have any recommendations for a holder/organizer for tools like scissors, multi tool, hook remover? I saw one at Academy it was made by rapala. It came with 3M double side tape to attach it to the boat. Do you guys usually use the tape or end up screwing them in? Thanks.

You will end up hanging it with screws.

I ended up using screws and screwed it down to the front deck. Didn't want screw holes in the side of my boat.

Screws...save yourself the time. I tried double sided adhesive tape to. It eventually falls off....hate drilling holes but, go ahead. Probably going to take at least 2.

Make your own for what you need. This one is just plain pinewood painted with exterior latex and holds everything I need most. It also serves as a "bone pile" for used baits. 'spoon

Use the screws. Make sure you drill a pilot hole so you don't crack the glass.
Drilling the first hole in your boat is always the hardest. After that it get's easier.
I'm still looking for a good solution for my center console.
