These deck boxes have been way more useful than I first thought they would be. The larger one against the bulkhead holds a 20lb propane tank, another one on th other side. The other box is a handy seat for party's and visibility underway. Most importantly, they hold the sheets and halyard. Without them, the lines would be a monstrous mess. We just flake them in there, no coiling. When needed, they feed smootly out with very little hanging up. The port box also holds the rode for our stern anchor, plus a bunch of other random, handy things.
