Since I have a Pro Rule toter (about $65 shipped) and a vented Yamaha cover (about $130 shipped)...life is much simpler. Many advantages to both...imagine forgetting to take off the toter and doing it in the launched boat without getting more than your hand wet....imagine leaving your engine cover on to prevent scratches and bug-pebble dings 24-7.
Not great ideas, just great to have...they last a very long time and sooo convenient.
A real idea would be using JIF jars...smallest for papers and spare $10...key and other sizes for whatever you like soft bait-wise...red tops for vision and they float...a 2-fer!
