    Small must haves modifications or things on a boat

    What are some small must have things or modifications done to your boat that you cant live without? Not so much big stuff like power poles, etc but odds and end stuff.

    Power Pole buttons on your step up to the deck just in case you can’t get to front quick enough or console switch quick enough.

    I should also add ez view tackle system. Reasonably priced, and helps with organization of plastics...and snacks.
