But will finally be able to add some value.

I joined NWKA in 2011 at the suggestion of someone on another fishing forum.  At the time I had received an OT Vapor from a buddy, and was looking to deck it out.  I never really got further than the anchor trolley, as I found it not very well suited to the fly fishing I was hoping to do from it.  Donated it to my buddy's kid, and have been fishing my WaterMaster nearshore for lingcod for the past two years.  I knew another yak was in the future, but also knew that I wanted to go all out.  Fast forward 3 years, and in a couple of weeks, I will be the owner of a new Native Watercraft Slayer Propel!  Been stocking up on accessories, just need the yak so I can start drillin' & cuttin.

Great forum with lots of info.  I look forward to finally being able to contribute.

Hey Jon, glad you piped up!  Where did you find a Native Propel?

Nice choice on the Propel - I've been fishing mine for a few months now and love it.  gear storage can be challenging - I would highly suggest the seat organizer that fits attached under the seat.  I'd love to see how/where you manage your battery storage for a fish finder...my redneck roots came out with my set-up and I need something cleaner.

Gig Harbor Fly Shop is getting in a fleet of 25 boats, I believe.  I picked up one of two copperheads.  Been collecting accessories...have the bow bag and both seat organizers (under seat and behind) coming soon.

For the FF, I'm pretty sure I'll be going through the bow scupper...I'll definitely post what I come up with.  I picked up the Native battery bag and hope that does the trick nice and clean.  The best I've seen with "redneck roots"  takes the access panel and fixes a tupperware container inside, sealing it with weatherseal.
