Ok this isnt going to be a spectacular disply of gadgetry but I am gonna post my Prowler with the few mods I have done. First of all I have installed the hatch I fitted a 16" x 12" box I bought6 from Charlies stores for about £4 and its going to be used to store bait and lures I also have found another BG owner had bought a tackle/tool box that fitted perfectly in the Prowlers front compartment and that cost £7 Snug fit too Then the anchor spool which is plastic cable drum fitted on a piece of Black 20mm conduit which can be removed and placed back in the basket while paddling The basket was donated to me by Pat (thx ;D) and all I have done is added some marine ply to stiffen up the 2" waste pipe I have used as rod/net holders. I have fitted an anchor cleat but the anchor trolley was the work of the previous owner ;D Last of all I have made a Proto-type Yak trolley the materials are very strong but its in very early test stage. So there you go guys and I hope to get this baby christened with a fish this weekend it has already been on calm water and its certainly been WEIGHT tested Thanks For reading John

Nice one Jonny, puts my yak to shame. Looking forward to seeing the addition of a few 'scales' after the Trefor meet.
See you Sunday
Cheers
Tim ;D

As I said, I take no credit for the trolley system but the spool was a mix of ideas from trolling the forums while busy at work
