Looking at a variety of multi-species boats. Been in a bass boat all my life. Looking at the under 18' length. So far all the usual suspects have about the same layout on the side console models. All I have seen online have small rod lockers on one side or some on two sides. One, a Polar Kraft Frontier 165 SC has a floor locker but the boat is hard to find in my area.
I like to carry about at least six rods. I can manage with the storage, but it sure looks like a big compromise of how to store and quickly access them.
I know I can go to a larger boat and find it, but one of my objectives is to downsize to less than 18'.
Anyone know of a small multi-species model with decent rod storage?
