Default Gunnel box project

I've been doodling designs for new gunnel boxes for years. Finally stopped thinking and started DOing.
Got a big piece of 1/2" Starboard and went to work.

The design went through many variations including hinged doors, tackle drawers, sliding doors...I settled on a starboard frame with one piece of white plexigas that lifts/drops into a rail. Keep it simple...

One side will hold life jackets and the other will store a gaff and a brush

Here's what we got done today. Will cut the plexi tomorrow

Not sure if I'll stick with this plexi, too transparent. There is a less transparent type and a totally opaque type.
