My Latest Hobie Revo Mod - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

The Hobie Tray will not fit in the center hatch after installing this mod. I never liked the Hobie tray anyway. It is too small to be very useful. I will be moving mine to the stern hatch and installing the fish finder battery there.

Yours is a common problem to most of us. I solved it by installing adhesive backed velcro (Technically called "hook and loop"bought from McMaster Carr supply) strips longwise down the inside of the hull. Ive bonded the other to the bottom of my water proof Plano tackleboxes,and then another strip in the top of the large boxes and the bottom of the smaller boxes so they stack on top of each other.I usually only use two ,but have stacked two on the left,two on the right. This works outstanding. I do have to rebond or replace the strips after a season or two.Wallmart is a good cheap source of waterproof boxes. Just my 2 cents.
