Ok so my boat the bench has no storage and behind the bench there is a small storage up top that is connected to the cap, my question is what all diff options did the rear of this boat have, it seems a lot have storage under the seat but can't tell about the storage up top. I'm redoing all my seats and plan to put storage under the seat for a fat sac but also thinking about cutting into the cap and making a whole new bench and storage area on top of the gas tank... Any thoughts info or ideas?

I thought most had a swim locker up top? Here is what I did under the seat for heater and storage... 9192
There should be plenty of room for a seat sack under there I would think. maybe this one... http://www.wakemakers.com/fly-high-rear-seat-sac.html
Some pictures of what you're talking about would help out, but Good luck.

sitdown, is that your rudder arm/steering in the picture? If not what is that? I only ask cause I have never had that open in my boat. Thanks

Looks like you are wondering the same thing I am. Mine is like that also but my seats had enough room to hide like life jackets under it. I am looking at trying to make that storage box removable to get back there withouth slide my tank out.

Sitdown, if you dont mind that would be perfect if you can get a better picture. My floors and stringers were done prior to me getting the boat, the owner didn't put an access cutout for the arm. It seems a little lose, so I was going to cut one in this weekend, and this gives me a better idea of where/how to do it. Thanks, and sorry I didn't mean to hi-jack your thread. This is going to help me better place the panel almost directly on top of the rudder/arm.
