Nice console choice! I am curious about the chine you added to your bracket?
Sorry for the late response. My desk top bit the dust today so it's in the shop. Hopefully they will be able to fix it.

That consel fits this boat perfect! I wanted to be able to put in a leaning post-livewell/seat combo like the one I have in the 23 and now I think I can make it fit with this consel.

about the chine....my initial thoughts for adding the chine was so it would deflect water downward keeping it from splashing up against the bottom of the swim platform. I am told it may also generate some lift allowing the boat to get up on plane a little faster. I am also wondering if it will create some lift while at rest (the whole self bailing thing) I am hoping that it does not effect the boat in a negative way when turning?

What do you think?
