Eight (8) pictures X 1,000 words equals a book.

I added an anchor trolley and spent some quality time catching lots of reds this morning. I added my Anchor Trolley to the slidetrax system and put the mounts on upside down to let the top of my anchor trolley pass from one end of the yak to the other. I use a bungee at the stern pulley to keep the line taunt and mounted my bow trolley to the slidetrax. I also put the trolley on and messed up on my buttons to pull the rudder up and down. The bungee that comes with it passes through the front of the system and I have rope passing through so I will restring it, but it works for now.

The Bow Pulley is mounted on the Slidetrax

I turned the tie down upside down and run my trolley line through to secure it to the side

I secured the stern pulley with a bungee line to keep the trolley line taunt.

I tie a loop here because its less noisy than a metal ring and holds my anchor line in place
when I move it with the trolley to the bow or stern

Seat Up
Image

I secure my anchor to my boat with a tie down on the top rail and clip it in with a carabiner
for quick release if I need to dump the anchor, it has a floaty up on the top of the rope
so I can come back and find it.

Seat Down

Thats just the flag I use when the stern is sticking out the back of my truck

Looks like a nice Boat indeed, I just want to know how wide it is. I've grown quite fond of my PA I guess when we go to tournaments together you could throw my PA on top and then strap that thing inside of it right? LOL

That thing must be pretty stable Jeff's a big ole cat to be standing up and down. Looks like it has room for everything you want including the kitchen sink!!!
