Pontoon we purchased has storage under two flip flop seats only. Looking for recommendations for storage. We've thought about a deck box or Rubbermaid tote. Even thought of another seat.

We can't be the first with this issue....Your thoughts or other ideas?

The only thing we store is a couple anchors and life jackets. They fit easily under a bench seat across the back - which does double duty by controlling the noise of the engine as best as possible. The only other furniture on board, other than lawn furniture, is the captains swivel chair and the console.

The pontoon doesn't have any benches. The inside of the flip flop seat will only fit three life jackets tightly. So we have three life jackets in one. The second one has two anchors with lines and our distress flag. I managed to fit the bumpers between the console and the playpen panel secured with a bungee. Will bungee the throwable flotation to one of the panels as well. Guess we will need to put the pontoon and bimini cover off the boat or get a small tote for the deck.
