Tackle boxes in boat


The Iceman

Recommended Posts

Needed to organise tackle boxes in my boat as the hatches just open up into empty space so I took some measurements and started to look around for an aluminium fabricator Couldn't really find anyone(did contact brickman but he only does stainless) and then along comes a new fishraider sponsor in DM marine so I contacted Dave emailed a drawing and a couple of days later received a text that it was done so around to pick it up I went and this is the result though not finished yet need to get some ali rivets
