Console, T-top, deck and more...
I have been pretty busy lately. I built a t-top for my boat a couple of years ago and it broke a little bit back. Completely my fault as I tried to tow my buddies 15' Bass Tracker with a rope tied off to the top. It was one of those "F" it moments where a bit of alcohol is involved and you can imagine how the rest of the story goes.
I was not very happy with the original design anyways, it lacked some curves and the top was a bit too big for my taste. I decided to mount the new top to the console instead of the deck to save valuable foot room in my 18 footer. Since I was removing the console I decided to tackle a few more projects like modifying my console to flush mount my electronics, adding a splash-well and fixing a soft spot in the deck. Pics of original top and new design. The new top will be painted white like the original.

I still have another coat of paint to apply to the console. I am also making an electronics box for my new radio and the VHF.
I still have a lot to do so there will be more pics to come.

It's the same boat. She got a paint job a while back and is now "fighting lady yellow".

Not much to show but an update none the less. I got the new ply and top skin epoxied in yesterday and this morning I glassed the top side.
I am thinking about sanding my non-skid off instead of filling it with fairing compound. Seems like it would be easier in the long run.
