Why it's on GiftsFeed
Paddleboard attachment that secures a five-gallon bucket or cooler
Most paddleboard fishing setups mean you're either holding onto a bucket with your feet or watching it slide around in the nose. This mount solves the problem by giving a five-gallon container a dedicated lock-in point, so your bait stays put and your hands stay free.
The real advantage is compatibility with both work buckets and insulated coolers. You can swap between a bait bucket for fishing mornings and a cooler for afternoon paddles without changing your board setup. If you already use Rac Receivers or plan to, this turns dead mounting space into working storage.
Good gift when
- Anglers who fish from paddleboards and need bait or gear within reach
- Paddlers who want cold drinks secured during long trips
- Anyone building a custom Rac system for on-water work
Skip it if Only useful if you own or plan to install Rac Receiver mounts on your board, and you already have or intend to buy a five-gallon bucket or compatible cooler.

The maker
BOTE builds paddleboards and accessories for anglers and paddlers who spend full days on the water. The Rac system started as a way to mount fishing rods without drilling into boards, then expanded into a modular platform for coolers, buckets, and other gear. Each component locks into the same receiver mounts, so you can reconfigure your setup based on the trip.
The details
This cradle wraps around a standard five-gallon bucket or KULA Cooler and locks into Rac Receivers on compatible paddleboards. It turns a loose container into a secured station for bait, cast nets, tackle, or cold drinks, keeping everything within arm's reach while you're on the water.
The mounting system fits both the front and rear receiver positions on Rac-compatible boards. The shaped design holds the bucket or cooler steady through chop and wakes, so you're not chasing rolling gear or watching your setup slide overboard.
Use it with a basic work bucket for bait and fishing gear, or pair it with a KULA Cooler to keep drinks and food cold while you fish or paddle. The attachment works with other Rac system components, so you can build a custom setup that suits how you actually use your board.
Available in multiple colors to match or contrast with your board and other accessories. The design prioritizes function over decoration—this is about making a five-gallon container useful on the water, not about looking like you fish.
