   Hi Jeff. Thanks for your reply to my "wife-friendly" post. It was very helpful. As for fish storage on the 21 Explorer, where have you put your fish? Does your boat have a built-in storage box? I'm hoping to get back to SE Alaska next summer and the fishing there can be wild and wooley!! One triple my son, father-in-law and I got created so much mess that we vowed to never fish three rods again!! Of course, we recanted but space could be a real factor up there. Also, what kind of electronics do you have on board and have they worked out well for you? Thanks, Mike

   Hello Mike,
   I am sorry but I can provide you much information on my wife friendly Arima because I have not owned it long enough. Yes it does have a nice fish box built into my Sea Ranger 19, but I have not used it as yet. I am looking to rig it this year for the 2010 season with all new electronics. Presently it only has a Lowrance depth sounder and a hand held GPS unit. I am currently considering install ne Humminbird 900 series GPS/sonar and possibly also using my current Humminbird 797 ci2 unit aboard it too. The VHF fixed radio will also be new and I will also carry my portable VHF radio as a backup. I will also be installing new Scotty downriggers and a Yamaha 8hp kicker. I have a lot to do before I can start filling the fishbox. I plan to post photos as I complete my project.
