I like the look of that console, any chance of some more photos, looking for ideas for when I have an upgrade in the next few months...

Looks, (from a distance) like the consoles that were fitted to the McLachan class life/boarding boats back in the 70s?/80s

Have a good day tomorrow, wish I was out aswell.
