Just wanted to thank you all for your replies. If anybody could give me dimensions for that underseat storage area, I'd appreciate it. If not -- well, we'll know soon enough.
Love the Pod-Tiki! Never would have that of that!

Make sure you seal it up well before you float it for the first time, and get the outboard motor attachment for the rear receiver...

Well, our 177 is now in dry dock in our drive. We'll outfit and christen it over the next few weeks. So it's exploring time. I want to see what is in some of those crannies.

There is also some room under the bed. We just use a plastic tub for clothing there.
We bought our 2011 177 used last summer and the previous owner had screwed a plastic bin to the floor under the drivers side dinette seat so things wouldn't wander around into the charger/fuse box and such. He also put hinges on the compartment cover for easy access. We put things in there that we don't us much or hopefully only for emergencies. |

Welcome. Yes, in older pods that area was only partially blocked off for the converter, the rest was open storage.

We just got our 177. IFRR, there is storage under one dining seat. The other is closed and has electronics or something. I'm told that you can open it up and with a little carpentry get some more storage. We had uhaul install hitch and controller. I'd have done both, but we wanted it quickly. I'd have puttered. The controller would be easy to install, I think.
