Hi Denny,
Thanks, That was the reason I didn't go two inches wider on the helm side to accommodate the twin gas cans -- that little step edge is a convenience you take for granted with pedestal seating. Hopefully I can wrap it up this week.
The space in the doorway is neither. The door is just leaning there right now. Some one had cut off 4 inches of the door or it's not original. Perhaps they had a low profile aux. tank, who knows? I wasn't going to sweat it cause mosquitoes aren't a problem here and it's not enough space for a punk hoodlum to squeeze through, unless he's a real pinhead
;eventually I'll either extend it at the bottom or consider a window at the top.
