I appreciate the nomination of my bucket lid trailer fender. I think Sumner's above deck anchor locker, which houses anchor chain and rode, deserves consideration. He uses a soft cooler for this task, on his classic. Also, I'd self nominate the trailer hitch ball which I attached to an aluminum rod, which gets inserted into the mast crutch pedestal socket. The trailer hitch ball sits a few inches above my Garmin, and is usually good for a few "What do you tow with that?" comments. Actually, it serves as a great hand hold when moving past the pedestal, and reduces the risk of a guest grabbing the Garmin as a hand hold. Garmin does a great job for navigation, but pretty useless as a hand hold.

Oh! I Got One! The $10 inflateable dog I got -To Keep the Seagulls from Crapping on my boat while in the mooring field! Boys & Girls -This Works😳!
