I really appreciate the suggestions and examples. Thanks. I'll be moving my new engine control to the far right of the console and putting the wheel in the middle. Right now with the engine control about in the middle of the console the control cables dominate the area insde the console and would get in the way of the set of drawers that I plan to install down there. Last year's project was a re-do of the panel, looks like it's getting done over again.
Capt. Chuck, boy that's some pretty bright work. I'm going to need to keep the elctronic's down low. I set the T-Top to fold down so I can get under a bridge that lays between my mooring and Snug Harbor. Last winter I replaced the nice fiberglass hard-top with a much lighter sheet of cellular PVC. I lost the storage up there as a result but it's so much easier to tilt now. I'll take advantage of your idea's as I lay out my new drawers. My boat came to me set up with a Raymarine Auto Pilot. Since I never use it and I'm trying to clean up the console in general I'm thinking of taking it off the boat. I use the boat to spearfish or bounce the bottom while drifting. Thanks for the feedback Tom |

Things are starting to come together on my console refurb and fuel tank replacement project. I'm glad I posted my questions, I got good suggestions, thanks to the contributors. I've put some in progress shots below, I'll post the finished product when I'm done, hopefully before Memorial day.

I'm close enough to call it done and start using it. I put the boat in the water a couple of weeks ago but did not finish up the set of drawers that I made for the console until this weekend. I trimed the shelf inside the console back about 18" and added a flange across the bottom back of the console so I could screw a flange mounted insert set of drawers into the console. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Thanks, I'm looking forward to using this summer and seeing how it works out. I see that this project will never be done and that has it's own appeal.
