Not bad looking at all!

I'd let er rip just the way she sits! I'm surprised Jason hasn't commented on this boat yet. He wanted to do a pilot house on a v20.

I love the pilot house design. But that looks too "boxey" for me. If I was to ever go that route I think I'd spend the money and have it professionally done to look more like a Parker or a C-Hawk, with the rounded windows and corners. Still, that's a nice rig for homemade.

I agree with Destroyer. But then again that might be the "Hawaiian" part of it. As I feared it is out of proportion. If a V20 had more gunnel height it would look good. As is it doesnot look bad.

This what I would love to do to mine. But make the house a little smaller than this one.

Kracker you can still do that. I have scrapped the pilot house design and opted for a center console cuddy conversion. Look at the Everglades with the console closed with glass on three sides. That is what I hope to build. Also plan to build side panels and a rear to close it off during winter and removable during summer.
