Here is a 16' boat that started from scratch too....I have yet to think of something that I would have done differently. I can store 9' rods completely out of the way (on the side locker extending up under the front deck), 2 casting decks (rear is removable), all the storage I can use, plenty of floor space, and tunes for the wife.

It "could" fish 3, but would be tight for muskies, but other fish no problem. Could put a livewell where the bigger locker is under the front deck too - I have my baits there, no livewell in this boat. Partners baits go under the back deck usually so the floor is totally open and I have more in the longer side locker in plano boxes. The short sider locker has all the boat equipment (life jackets, tools, first aid kit, paddle, etc.). 3 batteries are under the very back of the back deck (enclosed with a flip up lid for easy access).

I got a new Beckman net since these pics were taken and I put a carribeaner clip on the end of the handle so when I'm fishing alone and net a fish I can clip the carribeaner to the other sides locker latch and I can work on the fish without the net falling in when the fish starts acting crazy - it works awesome.
