I couldn't agree more. If I had the money an enclosure would absolutely be the first thing I would get for my V. Truthfully, I've never understood the appeal of a center console. (Oh, I know that for fishing they make getting around the boat easier, but a walk around design does the same thing, and you still get a cuddy that way). But even without an enclosure, the shelter provided by my windshield, bimini and cuddy are still more than a center console would give me. I just wish I could get the set-up like you have Greenie.

Back in 1999 when I put my 1st V together...the '74, one of the main things I did was a full, four sided enclosure...forked over $1800 for it and never regretted a penny of it...secure a propane heater inside during hard winter, fished 12 months and LOVED it...
Front and side curtains are a great start...the rear panel is icing on the cake...

My enclosure was done by a one man operation - Sam / Dynamic Upholstery, Cherry Hill NJ. Phone # is 856-779-9000. Welcome to send me a PM if you want more info.......
Probably wouldn't have the curtains if I didn't find this guy. Back to performance - countless times out on the ocean, breeze picks up, running along, spray fiies and pours down the front / side curtains and there we sit, dry. Nice. Last edited by bgreene; 03-16-2014 at 07:28 AM.

Spent a few days knocking these out for the Sea Ox.
Came out pretty good. Still learning but getting better at it. I actually enjoy these projects. Lots of time involved making patterns and you earn your money doing canvas/upholstery work. Was going to try to put smiley zippers in the front but didn't have the room to roll or flip them up with the electronic box.

Nice work!
I have always wanted an enclosure for my V but just haven't done it, but I had 4 sides on my old Grady White, it was awesome.
