As I say the boys at Ribcraft did me proud. The consol "squeezed" in nicely.
I had seen one with a single seat but I wanted two. whilst it don't leave a lot of space it does give a huge amount of storage so nothing has to be on show really. I can get 2 fuel tanks in the consol under the seats, they then slide out of the rear. Both seats lift giving plenty of space then there is the locker door on the front which give you even more space. So it may look cosy but everything is away.
I have a VHF and a GPS Chartplotter to fit this week and that is her pretty much done. The only down side is that I can't seem to find any power take off on the Evinrude so the battery will have to be charged when she is out or on the way to the launch. No great shakes really, maybe a solar charger may be an option just to keep it topped up.
Once the electronics are in I will pop a couple more pix up
