On a Montauk 170 I keep the fenders attached to the top of the side rails. They hang under the rails, on top of the gunnels, out of the way, and can be easily deployed.

I installed a glove box on the console.

And I normally carry one of these strapped to the middle of stern area against the transom well. It is held in place by a rubber cord attached to the transom well so it can be easily tied in place.

There are different sizes, but this is the largest I found that still allowed walking behind the console seat and was low enough it did not interfere with raising the engine.
