Abstract

A compact, light-weight, portable fish cleaning station which can be easily and selectively mounted on the outside surface of the hull of a small boat. The station is used to securely hold a fish for cleaning or cutting while allowing drainage of waste material into the water. The station includes a rigid frame with a suspended net located inside the frame, a pair of support arms that are temporarily aligned over the gunwale of the hull and securely clamped in position. The distal ends of the support arms are inserted into rigid tubes attached to the end members on frame. The length of the support arms is sufficient so that the station may be used on hulls with different sidewalls. The net is suspended in the frame with clips that allow the net to flex when used and allows the net to be easily replaced. The net also securely holds the fish as it is being cut.
