Even though the boat's not completely done, I had to compare the before and after paint job.

Got the Center Console back in the boat with new paint, new compass and new steering wheel. Moved anchor locker hinges to the side. The crooked bow light hole still driving me crazy every time I see it, it's still on the list. Replaced pull-up cleats with pop-up cleats and added some shiny new hinges at the stern.

Inside of center console gel coated, battery holders installed. And plywood (painted white) on port side of center console so amps can be mounted without screwing through the outside of the freshly painted center console.

The project looks great. What brand and size is that anchor locker hatch? I'm looking for something similar for my bow.

Thanks! The anchor locker is custom made. We drew the shape we wanted, cut it out and fabricated fiberglass gutters. The lid is the piece of fiberglass deck that was cut out, painted it, then added hinges, moved the hinges so it opens from the side, patched the old hinge holes, sanded, repainted and voila!

A little snag... The JL Audio Subwoofer sticks out a little too far. So the lid of floor hatch hits the sub and can't open all the way. Ugh! Decided to route out around the speaker to try to move it back enough so the lid will open, changing the floor hatch dimensions at this point would be tough. It was looking so good, hope it still looks good after the speaker mod. Gotta make it work! That sub faceplate is pretty thick.

Man just redo the floor hatch -
It's all about the base, Bro'

Save yourself some work and keep the bass - Hinge it in front with gas hatch springs.
