Bow & Stern Lockers For XS Rib Craft

As we make every part of the boat in house so any locker design, location, space or shape can be provided, here are some "standard" options. No locker in an open boat can be considered 100% waterproof, valuables should always be in dry bags within the locker. Lockers should be checked daily if they have electrical items in them and water sponged out.
