Gotta lot of work to do~

[Scouts Out]

Well, I finally made it home from overseas. Had a bunch of boxes waiting on me and I went and got the old Sea Ark out of storage. I will really be ramping up my questions for you guys on this forum as my crappie prep and fishing is moving from the theoretical to actual trying to catch one!

Here's some of the things I've got to do-
-Un-winterize the motor,
-Install 16 Hi Tek rod holders (8 up front, 8 in back--but I've also got a EZ Pole Perch dual seat for up front, so I will have to think hard how to place them so that I can fish with single seat, or use the dual seat.),
-Build another floor in the bottom of the boat (took the wood floor out last summer, right before I got unexpectedly deployed--would have left it in had I known that),
-Install Lowrance HDS-5 fishfinder/transducer (getting a HDS-7 and LSS-2 with ethernet cables from BBG Marine this week--don't know where to put the 7 and 5 -- 7 at console, I guess)
-Install new 8 foot gunbox, and
-Put these new 12 foot rods into service.

Any ideas, especially on rod holder placement and Lowrance advice, if you have any ideas. Thanks, Brad
