We used to use a small SS trash can strapped and snapped to the cooler, it was too small, always in the way and stuff would fly out, when the wife drove! Decided to use some of the foot-well space on the driver side. A little snip snip, I admit the snip snip part took a while to figure how I wanted to do it, add a handle and an access panel. Its much larger, easy to get in and out, easy access and out of sight.

Do those stains wash off easily? I'm assuming water marks?
Yeah I have a stiff bristle brush on a pole, pain in the ass though, it stains from just water draining from the cooler. Its nice stuff on the feet and looks nice when clean, its just a bitch to keep clean unless you are full OCD!! I am in nor cal and most of our lakes in the sierras have an orange brown dirt, i should have gotten orangish brown flooring 😂

It looks great.

Just to ad to thread. There are many versions of the pic I am posting. I am only posting it because I see these modifications all the time and the pic shows how we do it in SoFlo.

Oh yeah, I wasnt going to cut that kind of a hole in my boat though. I am considering marine doors and this kind of trash cans for a pool house we are building this coming spring.
