Default 23 sceptre to center console

Cant find any info but has anyone taken a 23 Sceptre and turned it into a center console. I found one at a good price and would like to convert it if possible. What type of trouble am I looking at. Thanks for any info.

Tim

thats gonna be expensive as hell, even using regular old poly resin and glass. i just spent about 700. in materials just to redo a transom on my 20 sf. realy consider not cutting up that boat, maybe you can sell it for a profit or trade for a cc.

Much, much easier to turn it into a Savage. Great compromise having the flush cabin and CC.

Absolutely beautiful looking, and incredible workmanship.Some of the work done by members of this site astounds me.If restorations were ranked like baseball,I'd be maybe in little league,while project like this, Stricks,and others would be in the major league hall of fame.
That is some Beautiful work Kneedeep.
