so I just got my Unit at Orwood and wanted to see if I could get some advice on essentials to keep in the unit..

I have my shop vac
Rack for hanging jackets and towels to dry
Waxes
Rags
Boat Bright
Seat Soap
Tools
Boards
Mini Fridge for cold drinks and snacks

Anything else?

Maybe a battery charger/starter, jumper cables
Also I like to keep a few quarts of oil, tranny fluid, oil and fuel filters, prop puller spare prop, grease for trailer wheel bearings etc...
When you need that stuff, it's nice to have it right there, and not have to run around town to pick it up.

Oh and beers in the fridge!
...cleaning and working on a boat is kind of like BBQing for me, hard to do without a beer in one hand

funny .. the beers ... me too.

i like one of these. single board of 12 foot 4 x6, lag screws, plywood. the spacing is intentional to drive the lag screws.

DAMPRID! This stuff is amazing. I store my boat outdoors with the cover on. At the end of the day after everything is cleaned, I place 4 of these throughout the boat then put the cover on. The next day all the moisture is drawn into the bottom of cup and you just dump it out.
