Bought a boat kit in white from Bluewater and mounted the strips on the lip of the locker. They are awesome for those early morning pre tournament days when you are getting ready

It almost looks like you have tackle storage mounted to your locker lids. I'm hoping to do this soon and was just looking for ideas. I'd also like to install switches so when I open the locker lids the lights come on

Ahh. I gotcha now. Those were added by the original owner. Not 100% sure what brand they are but very useful. I've included a few pics. He had them installed in all 3 front lockers...this is the main 2 lids I use

The one on the center lid is factory installed.

I did some simular additions to my old rig last year. Did not think about using rod protectors, I found a place that sold the color of 2" hose that I wanted and they also had hydraulic hose protector that just spirals on to want ever you decide to put it on. No need to unhook an one end in order to slide it on. I put it on my troll motor cable and it also hides the transducer cable, and my oh crap handles. Added the coolfoot pad on the foot pedle and replaced the running light recepticles with red ones. The rod protector looks great....my wheels are turning right now for applications on my boat.

Looks great Mike

I've been trying to come up with something for the trolling motor cable. I'm gonna have to get an up close look at yours

I like the recepticle covers

did you have that done or buy them that way?

I sent you the web site a few months ago Mike.....about 35 bucks apiece.

Elwood ,
I'm interested in doing my motor similar to what you have done . My question is do you not have a fuel bulb ? Mine has one and I rarely if ever pump it up , do I even need one with a 200 EFI ? If I could eliminate that portion of the fuel lines I could probably make it all look slick like yours.

Elwood that's a sweet rig buddy.

Bigwench....my fuel bulb is in the bilge area under the deck. If you buy a new fuel line kit, it has enough line on the motor end to leave the bulb under the deck.
I did about an hour of research on line to find places that sold the cable guards in the color that i wanted.
