      I thought you guys might want to see the bag that I built to haul the Voracity and gear around in. It really works great to get everything to the lake in one bag.

        Awesome, awesome, awesome. Thank you so much for making a video. I have been thinking about doing a bag like this for 2 seasons. My problem is all my families stuff getting thrown on or falling on the boat when travelling. Love the adjustable width bunks, really great idea! Did you consider adding a vertical support piece about half way between the two ends, or is the frame sturdy enough as is?

          Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I really haven't seen the need to put in more vertical supports. I even sometimes set the Voracity crosswise across the top of the bag when I'm working on it and the top pipes bow a little but really not bad. I haven't seen the need to glue any of my joints so if you feel like you need to add more stuff later it would be easy. EDIT: If you think people might stack things on top of the boat bag, I would add a vertical support in the middle.

            I really enjoyed watching the DIY on that boat bag, ... going to definitely look into making one!

            Thanks!

              Does anybody here have water coming into the hull from where the trim tabs bolt up? How can I stop that? iThought about silicon but have no idea how to get it in between the outside of the hull and the screw

                Thinking you have already checked screws for tight. I have used liquid thread seal permatex.

                  Yes I have the same issue. I haven't done anything about it yet but I need to. Let us know what works for you.

                    Yes in tightened all the screws but water still seeped in pretty bad still. Is the thread seal permatex pretty thick? Cause the screw hole is is big so I'm not sure if the permatex will just ooze off. Thanks

                      No goes on like thread locker but little thicker . Let dry screw in. My main use for it was for sealing 350 chev. Head bolts. Has Teflon in it.

                        A dot of silicone. On the inside of hull on each nut could not hurt. Guess got lucky mine does not leak. I use wood fondue sticks (take point off) to apply.

                          That's funny. I use wood fondue sticks for glue projects too. They work well.
