A water control storage frame system for at least one storage compartment is formed in a boat having a deck. The system includes a frame structure rising above the deck of the boat and defining an upper peripheral opening of the at least one storage compartment. The frame structure is provided with an external structure facing away from the at least one storage compartment and configured for preventing water collecting on the deck from entering the at least one storage compartment and directing water from the deck into a drainage area. An internal structure is integrally formed with the external structure, and is configured as a peripheral track structure for receiving and retaining storage items at various locations along the peripheral track structure within the at least one storage compartment.
