The problem on every boat
Anglers spend the day twisting around, standing up or stepping across the deck to reach tackle, tools and electronics. Every trip away from the seat is time off the water, a lost line of sight on the fish, and on a moving boat, a safety risk. Gear stowed on the deck clutters the space and gets kicked, soaked or lost.
The Paxis solution
The Paxis swing arm mounts to the back of the seat. Pull one release handle and a storage pack swings around to the front, upright and ready to open. Grab what you need and swing it back, where it latches out of the way. The angler never leaves the seat.
How it works
Stowed
The pack sits latched behind the seat.
Release
One hand pulls the release handle.
Swing
The pack swings around to the front, upright.
Open
Tackle is in the angler's lap. Swing it back and it latches.
Why it sells
Stay seated
Tackle, pliers and electronics come to the angler.
Clear deck
Gear lives behind the seat, not underfoot.
Safer underway
Less standing and reaching on a moving boat.
Water-ready
The pack is built to handle spray and weather.
Detachable
The pack unclips to carry to the truck or the dock.
A standout option
A feature buyers notice at the boat show and on the dealer floor.
