I picked up the console last week and got home about an hour ago with the t-top. Both are in good shape...better than I was expecting but will know more when I clean them up more.
I am open to suggestions on configuration. While the console is long on storage it seems short of surface real estate, which I didn't factor in with all my wants
The top storage slides right/left
The middle also slides right/left
Bottom swings out right/left
I was going to add the following:
- Steering wheel/helm
- Stereo
- Trim Tabs (switch)
- Key/kill switch
- Binnacle
- Gas, Tach, Speed, Trim, ?Volt? (would like others if possible)
- FF
- DF
- Compass (up top)
Was hoping for a custom switch plate with ~10 switches including 12V & USB but this console has me scratching my head. I am probably going overkill but this is what I was hoping for. My past boats were already done lol.
Any ideas on where to put them? I could put them in one of the storage bins but like them where I can have quick access to. I could remove the doors I guess and starboard the whole top storage and remove the sliding doors which would probably work. All advise is appreciated to this Seacraft rookie!
