I want to know if there are any good tips on storing smaller items like wetsuits, jackets, trunks anything that doesnt end up on the roof. Thanks! |

Try a hanging gear hammock. I use one in my van to store clothes. Nice thing about gear hammocks is that you can see where everything is inside -- saves fumbling around.
You can find them at almost any outdoors store. Or try here: www.campmor.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?productId=7449&memberId=12500226
Ive also seen people use hanging shoe racks to store small stuff. |

Storage bins are great for putting your wet gear into after sailing. Just remember to take everything out and let it dry good before putting it back in. I just use a gear bag but have a bin for the wet stuff for the ride home. |

2nd part of this question. What kind of tools etc would you think be handy to have in there? |

I would suggest finding a small tackle box that has a top tray with dividers. You can put fin screws/nuts, small pieces parts, etc. in the tray.
In the bottom, flathead and phillips screwdrivers, pliers/channel locks/vise grips/needlenose, 3/8 drive ratchet with a small assortment of sockets, pocket knife/leatherman, ding stick for emergency board repairs (found online or surf shops), sail repair tape (check ebay), spare downhaul/outhaul rope, and anything else that comes to mind. Keeping all your tools in a separate box will keep the water out and tools together. |
