Tools are on my belt, in the form of a Gerber multiplier,,,,day tray is on the dash behind the windshield, in my pocket(trailers), and in the left front storage box in a small cardboard box, open topped with all the things i think ill be using during the day. The PIV has too much storage, and you can literally lose lures if you dont organize regularly, or use enough to know where you places them ! A day tray would be nice, but youll learn to do just fine without one.toss the used plastic in the floor of the cockpit, and gather all after the day is done and see if repair is possible, or discard of properly. Youll love the PIV, and really appreciate it in rough water. good luck, D.
