Sick boat mate , De Havilland I think is the spelling . I've got a little 10 footer of the same make . All you need to add is some pics with you in it holding some thumping big bream .

You did ask so here is my list of things to play with.
Some led nav lights. Even if you mainly fish daylight hours sooner or later you will stay out later than expected and wished you had them. Also I would get someone who can weld a plate onto the bow to mount the minnkota to get it off to the side, if price was reasonable.
Bimini for when it pours. It can fold down up the front if size is measured right.
Move fuel tank up the front with extended fuel hose. This helps better weight distribution in getting the weight off the arse of the boat. Especially if the deep cycle battery for your leccy is located there also.
That should get you started on a few projects. My first boat was a 399 Stacer proline and I enjoyed having improvement projects to work on with it.

Will get some up soon the deck is good except for up the front right in the bow just need to adjust it a little bit, hopefully just sand the right side down a little so it fits better.
