I just stumbled across your build the other and was wondering how it was going. Good to see your still going hard at it. Great looking progress you are making! I am contemplating a similar situation with my 87’ that has the shorty console as well. I have some photos in my post regarding a mock-up with some cardboard.

Thanks for sharing

I checked out your console, looks like we have similar ideas on it. Its crazy how short the thing is, unless you're sitting on a bucket, needs to be raised 6" minimum. Have you thought about compartments, windshield or adding anything else to it ?

I am going to mold some hatch gutters this weekend. My plan is to get the deck glued down Saturday. Has anyone glued up the hatch gutters after they put the deck down? i.e. clamped in place and lay it up from upside down?

Looks like I missed this. Have you made any progress on your console? I finally got my hands on some coosa for my modification. I thought about maybe adding a shelf somehow inside or a glove box at the build up top section but not sure just yet. I may try to reuse the railing (Maybe have it powder coated) and would like to replace the windshield with a DIY version but haven’t looked into it yet.  I had found a person locally who deals with teak but not sure I want to go that route anymore.

Chris, I did not replace the small stringer in mine. I don't think its necessary or provides any form of support. That part of the boat is very thick to begin with. If i were to do it I would use a small piece of strip coosa.
