Default Beginning Guccification

After two years on this boat things are starting to get good. We've added a teak trim strip to the lower border of the inside of the cap.





Clamps removed.



Forward over the anchor locker.



Console work. Initial fabrication of the steering pod.



Pod trial fit on the teak top of the console.



The top of the console is in three pieces: the forward portion will receive the forward supports of the T top; the middle portion will "roll up" to reveal the electronics dash; and the after portion contains the steering pod, throttle/shift and the rear supports of the top. I'm trying to decide whether to epoxy the pod in place, or just leave the duct tape.

Dam things take forever don't they? Your going to show up everyone with that super gucci CC. Where are you getting your teak? I may be needing some soon. I like the fold up electronics deal. That sounds cool. Now lets talk Power. What have you decided on for power?

That is going to be sweet!!!

I had a similiar plan for my Whitewater, the pod and hinged console. Then I decided to sell the boat. Can't wait to see it completed.
Is the teak trim just bonded in place? Looks good.

Sweet. That is going to be nice. I had some similar plans, though still very different from yours. I decided against the hinged console, but I am looking forward with great anticipation to seeing yours. It looks like you are doing a great job so far. I can't wait to see it completed.

Strick,

The teak came from an outfit called world panel products. I'm pretty sure they have a website.

As far as power goes, I'm still putting off the decision. It will be a suzuki, probably the 300 since they have too much invested not to work the kinks out.
