A snack tray.

Not sure which accessories to which you refer? It's a leftover 2016, so I bought it as-is from the dealer who is Marine Max in Naples, FL. Will accessorize as needed. Taking delivery on January 9, and going to use it in the skinny backwater of the 10,000 islands in SW Florida. Amazing area to explore. By the way, Marine Max is fantastic to deal with. No stores in NH, but they have stores in MA, RI & CT.

I mentioned to my wife last summer that I wanted to make jerk chicken in my smoker but that I didn’t have the proper wood chips. To my surprise Santa brought me a two pound bag of pimento wood chips from Jamaica. Now I can’t wait to fire up the smoker and try my best to make some Jamaican jerk chicken. “Ya Mon” Thank you Santa!

Little Bear -- Unless I am WAY of base here, I believe 8gv was referring to just "one" accessory !

My favorite gift this year was a 7'x9' Coleman tent.

It's not Everest capable and it only cost wifey $40 BUT it will be used for a week of camping and fishing in the swamps of Florida the first week of March.

This will be a reunion of sorts as it will be my first such trip in many years with an old friend. We have about fourteen of these trips under our belt. I suspect this will be our last hoorah.

Warm temps, boating, fishing, BBQ, who could ask for more?

Come on you Neanderthals, It's 2017 he may have been talking about the hunk driving the boat.

Two minutes for cross-checking.

Years ago I bought this wakeboard boat- it was the 2007 Monster Tower calendar boat of the year. I requested the blonde ornament to be included, much to my dismay she was not present at pickup....I had fun with the boat though!

Good grip on the track and skis on the snowmobile. It can hold in a near vertical position.

A Robalo Boat baseball cap. I can wear it when I pilot my new R160!

I just looked up the R160. It hits all my key requirements. Once my youngest son finishes college and has a place for it, my Edgewater 140cc goes to him.

The R160 looks like a great replacement!

Very well built and quality boat! Very heavy though. We looked at and tried one out at Melvin Village Marina. Make sure you get the biggest motor the boat can take which I believe is a 90 HP. We tried one with a 75 and couldn't get the boat to plane because of the weight...
