Nice work, good looking boat too.

"Angle the front downward" and adding the plexiglass door are both really great ideas. I had a e-box on one of my boats. The plexiglass was dark tinted and served double duty as a rear view mirror. It wound up being a catch all only housing a VHF. I attempted speakers but even the best shielded ones I could find made the compass dance. The compass on the Whaler was somewhat of a centerpiece of the custom fiberglass molded dashboard. To change that would have been ooodles and oodles of additional work. I decided to put 6x9's elsewhere.

How do you like the honeycomb for project making/glassing? I have used Coosa (foam reinforced with glass fiber), but have no experience with the honeycomb stuff because I was scared of the voids. Can water get in there? I see it being used in high dollar, high end go-fast boats and the like, so I don't doubt it is quality stuff. I am Just curious..I was scared I couldn't make the edges look right trying to lay wet glass across the voids..
