Beckson 6" Stow-Away Deck Plate - White w/12" Bag

The Beckson 6" Stow-Away Deck Plate in white with 12" bag is a purpose-built marine storage solution designed for securing small essentials on deck or cabin spaces where weather and movement are constant concerns. The screw-out cover design provides quick, tool-free access while maintaining a secure seal when closed, making it ideal for storing watches, wallets, keys, glasses, and other valuables during extended time on the water.

The nylon bag features a sewn-in rigid ring that seats securely into the deck plate, providing structural support and preventing items from shifting in rough conditions. The bag is fully removable, allowing easy access to any storage space below deck and enabling you to carry the bag ashore independently. The 6-inch diameter plate is sized to fit standard deck openings on most recreational and professional vessels, while the white finish resists UV fading and blends seamlessly with cabin or cuddy structures. The compact 8 x 1 x 8-inch footprint minimizes visual impact without sacrificing storage capacity.

This deck plate is particularly valuable for weekend anglers, cruising sailors, and offshore fishermen who need reliable, weather-resistant compartments for personal gear. The removable bag design addresses a common frustration with fixed storage—corrosion around permanently mounted hardware and the inability to access items without opening deck access plates from below. Beckson Marine's engineering focuses on reducing salt-spray corrosion and simplifying maintenance, making this solution practical for both freshwater and saltwater environments.

The screw-out cover mechanism is designed for durability and corrosion resistance, with stainless steel fasteners standard on marine-grade installations. Proper installation in a fiberglass or composite deck ensures a watertight seal that withstands flexing, vibration, and thermal cycling—all common on working vessels. Weight is minimal at 0.8 lbs, adding negligible burden to your vessel's overall mass.
