Boating Accessory, what do feel is the best?

[mbrown2]

The other thread got me thinking.....what do you feel the best boating accessory to be? It can be something the manufacture adds, or you, trailer or boat?....showers, heaters,LED lights, power tabs, box anchor, billet swim steps, hippity hop buoys, slide anchor, sand spike, Alpine Fast IPOD, GPS, ect.....
I am going to keep it simple....I think cup holders are a good thing!:)

I like my built-in ice chest - full of course. But the heater is sounding pretty good now that the cooler weather is coming.

Cover. That's what I've been using the most the past 2 years.
Actully this is the first boat with a tonneau cover. I think I'll always get one from now on.

Bow shower, soft sided ice chest, box anchor, and aqua step.

[boatnam2]

hands down heavy duty trash bags,and a card board crusher if you could fit it:D

[Dan Lorenze]

I think that a bimini is worth its weight in gold on really hot days. The box anchor and aqua step are good ones too..

Bimini (I always need shade), aqua step, soft ice chests, box anchor, and then when I'm off the water you gotta have the Hot Sauce.

[jbtrailerjim]

Bimini top & aqua step. A bimini top is a must (even though I don't care for the looks of them) when you're sitting out in the 110* + weather. The aqua step makes getting in and out of the boat much easier, especially for my kids.

[HPLavey]
