Anyone have a fix for wanting to fish barefoot? I found myself stepping on my latches and jumping in pain! My sandal tan line has to go as well

Great idea!!!
xpress x19, 200ho G2, aluminum sawtooth cut prop, paper sack tackle storage, ugly stik pro team, color c-lector
that would work.

Where and how in the world did you find something like that??
Recarpet the boat and cover the holes using a double over strap attached to the lid like champion did. Charger did the same thing on the new 210 elite.
I have dark carpet and fish barefoot. The latches will make you jump when you step on them on a hot sunny day. I keep an old beach towel on the boat and dip it in the water when the carpet and latches get too hot. Dip it a couple times per day and you are good to go.

too many hooks around to go barefoot, IMO
Exactly! A latch burn is nothing compared to a few trebles in the foot. I wear shoes around sharp and hot objects.
right,most of the time i will have 7-8 outfits laying out,to many hooks laying around
i know what you mean about the tan line,the bottom of my feet are nice and white no scares from hooks lol
I only bring one rod with me. (Striper fisherman and I typically use one lure rig for the day depending on what they want)

^^^^ this
I did that on my Stratos. Don't need those latches, I can break fingernails so many other different ways. I have only had one hatch fly up, and that was when I hit a wave that almost broke my back. Latches won't stop a thief anyhow, and keys get lost.
I Love this answer or WEAR SHOES!!
I throw a white towel down on the deck when fishing barefoot. Latches, hinges and the brass pedestal mounts get HOT!
Back in the 80's Panama Jack sold those. Came with a special glue.
Shoes is a whole lot easier.
Hi Mike.
