ACK is giving me their rental PA for the weekend while they get everything finished. I cant say enough about the people there at ACK. I am sure when I am not in the rental, I probably be there. :lol:

wildcats fishing lights and the wildcats navigation lights with an interior light. compass, fihfinder gps, visacarbon light and flag. anchor trolley. yack attack push pole. 2 scotty rod holders and I had a 4 switch rocker panel made that will control the lights and having power to the compass so it will light up, just in case the gps goes out and I am out a night. I should have it by friday. I am waiting for Justin the manager to finish it up.

You know we'll be expecting a picture of that rig now. Especially with all those lights lit up so we can see how it looks...lol.

Congrats. You will love it! I was sight fishing for bedded bass last weekend and had to crawl onto the front hatch to land the fish because I flipped over a dock cable. Can't say i could have done that with any other kayak out there.
