Well its been ages..the weather is cooling and I am itching.. Started back. With cutting down the console and refit it . then cut out the ice box.. Waiting on some glass to build the floor in the stearn up share the engine cover was..FYI if you want to get your boat worked on , do not go to escape boat works in Panama city.Fl... As you can see I am working on my boat again. Cause.he failed to fulfill his part of the deal... I actually pulled the plug two months early cause I notice other boats getting done before mine.. But with all my products. About 700.00 worth.. Most of my foam core and a roll of 1808 ,paint ,faring and resin were. Gone... I guess I should have taken pictures of all materials and put my name on everything I gave him to do my boat... Lesson learned...

Default Console

The 2nd and 3rd photos you see where I ground out the core some and made sure to grind each side of glass.. Also used alignment marks to help with install.. Also cut the bottom of console out. But made sure to bevel my cut so it will make glassing in much easier and to be able to glass the top on from inside...

Shaping the console. Therer are three lines drwn on top. Port ,starboard and center.. This is the part that will be cutoff so that the console will receive an electronic box.. I do not like my GPS or bottome machines in the ttop box.... It makes for along day and a sore neck...especially if the gps and bottom are separated . along with compass... It just chaps my ass......so compass will be in center and will,be flanked my GPS and sounder...vhfs will be in ttop box...
