The bow light, although NOT legally required on non-motorized watercrafts, is visible over the hatch-cover (but not over the FishBag, when it is installed). I only included a bow light since it came as a set with the telescoping rear light-pole assembly (which IS legally required for night-time excursions on public waters).

On/Off Switch???? I knew I forgot something! Actually, the switch for both lights is surface-mounted directly behind the seat-back.

Sorry to the ol' timers for reposting these - and other pics. But, there are a lot of new folks on board since my original postings - and a new category specifically for "rigging".

It is a standard "milk-crate". But, I moto-tool notches in the upper exterior corners of the crate for the bungee cords to "grab" (keeps the crate stabilized and secure).
I also use plastic 3-gal cannisters (w/ waterproof lids - that perfectly fit within these crates) as a readily accessible and removable dry-box. Or, as in the below pic, the cannister can serve as a live-well (with a 12v pump that circulates new water into the cannister, while an obscured overflow-hose maintains a predetermined water-level within the cannister).

Thanks for the compliment. But, with 1-1/2" aluminum angle-stock running around $16 for 3' (plus a few hours worth of cutting, bending, riveting, grinding, finishing, painting, etc, etc) it would be tough to profitably produce these brackets while remaining within a price-range that most folks would actually pay (based on past inquiries). I sold a couple of brackets early on; but quickly found that my time is worth more to me than the brackets are worth to others. Thanks anyway.
