I just purchased my first pontoon boat. Is there any suggestions on modifications that I should make?

What'd you get?

Here are a few picutres of my Buck's Bag Southfork.

Rod holder.




Side view.


View from rear.


It all gets used. Net, collapsable spare oar, gun rack, stoage for 4 rods, oar rests, and yes, a cupholder.

I tried to keep my soutfork as light as possible to maintain its handling and float as high as possible. At 220lbs I didn't want to add any more weight than necessary. The only thing I did was add a couple of rod holders. I eventually went to a 10 footer.

The only thing missing on that is a big jet and a kicker moose The rod holder on the seat is a great idea, but it does lead to thoughts of other possible uses for that hole in the seat.
