I was cleaning up the basement tonight and the boat stuff was part of that. I have it all in plastic bins and on an old mini fridge. What do you guys use to store all your boat stuff (spare pumps, extra rope, hoses ect)? Also do you keep it all in your basement or in a garage?

anything that may break while boating, I keep on the boat. plugs, impeller kit, spare prop, ignition module, etc.

everything else in shelves up in the garage. no longer have a basement since they dont build basements in florida.

In my garage in bins as well. If I might need it on the boat, in a milk crate in the engine compartment

I have a shelving unit in the shop which has any spare boat parts on the top 2 shelves and all my extra CJ stuff on the bottom 3 shelves. I use milk crates and plastic tubs to " Try " to keep stuff organized. I also keep the batteries and two 6 gallon gas tanks to our Starcraft in the shop on this shelving unit when the Sarcraft is stored outside.
