Author	Topic:   would like to add extra storage to montauk, suggestions??
jojoscoot	posted 06-17-2002 03:44 PM ET (US)         I need extra storage on my montauk to keep things dry such as jackets, towels, etc. Anyway, I have heard that mounting a second cooler in the stern is an option. Wondering if you guys agree, and if so what size cooler, and how to I go about mounting it?? Thanks.

Somewhere here Jimh talkes about his 'second cooler' approach, were he uses a cooler for each sport, and just loads the one that he needs (fishing, camping etc).
