    Storage trick..

    Don't know why I have not posted this before.
    For years I have used the 12 quart tupperware style rectangle containers to keep my plastics in some form of order. Of which I have way to many..
    A good friend of mine who has fished out of more Allison boats than anyone I have ever heard of --- Pointed out to me those 12 quart containers would fit under the deck lids just like those $50.00 trays we get from Bill.
    For tackle whores like me that's about 25 containers for the cost of one tray. Carry on

    So the lip of the tupperware sits on the ledge under the lid like the allison ones to allow storage in the tupperware and below in the regular box?

    This batch came from Walmart (Sterilite) is the brand 12 QT --# 1843..
    I'm almost positive we used the same ones in the 2003"s

    I like sterilite products, WE use the locking ones in the kitchen and I have a few in the boat for my terminal tackle. Saw a great video years ago where Aaron martens used them to keep all his small boxes in. Keeps things organized.

    Same containers should work in the XB2003. I ordered a couple from Bill at Allison not long ago and it made no difference of model.
