Looks very nice I like what you are doing with your console.

Try not to use anymore 5200 unless you doing something under the waterline, thruhull etc, and even then some would still stay away, switch to a silcone sealant or 4200

also I could not tell from the pictures so you may of alreadt done this but if not next time you drill a hole in the gelcoat, like mounting holes for your tab actuators, use a counter sink before you sink the screw. The counter sink will alleviate the possibilty of spider cracking.

Also listen to Hermco do not add unecesary fittings with your hydraulic steering. expesially when they are in the elements. Same goes for any electrical connection.

To see what the elements do look at this picture from Warthogs setup:





see how the chrome plated brass fitting around his engine rigging tube is already greening?, try not to use chrome plated brass/bronze unless you like polishing, stick with stainless, not quite the shine but will never turn green.

Although the picture may be mis-leading as I would never expect this type of tarnish from Warthog. (just razzing you Bobby as I imagine it is already glistining)
