trolling motor plate that's pre-installed you have these non-skid uh flooring up on the bow you also have a a SAE uh accessory plug you also have your bow mount trolling motor plug uh now these plugs and the wiring run for your trolling motor that goes back to your battery is 10 gauge wire I pulled this plug out and looked so it is 10 gauge wire uh you might want to upgrade this to eight gauge wire uh that's just my opinion but uh if your wire if it does start to overheat you're going to need to replace the plugs and the wire and get it down to at least eight gauge you do have this nice little uh cover plate that you can remove to access your valve you have a through hole Scupper for your transducer I'll flip it over and show you the bottom side it is a they they did a really nice job on making the uh transducer Mount down there large enough to fit most of the day's uh transducers especially with the side view it has a huge tank wheel for the bow uh video just does not give it justice of how how big this tank wheel actually is really a nice deep deck inside here now this thing has this is your through hole scopper it does have nine Scupper holes uh they do send your scoopers with this kayak so you don't have to purchase any you have this nice uh dry tank inside here uh if you pull it out this is inside the kayak it does have you the yak power here as you can see
