Console upgrade

[I'M OFF]

Has anyone changed the layout of your console on a CC of course. I have a sport console and I'm going to modify it, so I can install my electronics on it, more like the super console though without the plastic/glass door. Hope I am making sense, I will start taking pics to give you guys an idea and my progress. we all love boat pron.

Nice Job!!

I made something similar on my old boat, ply wood and west epoxy but I used 1/2" for the face and Luan for the sides.

After I sanded and faired it, I painted it with Krylon spray paint. :shock:

It still looks great 5 years later for the new owner.

What kind of paint did you use? It looks great.

 

[I'M OFF]

did it with Parker Gel Coat tinted down a shade since my boat is old and faded.

Looks great...
I see you painted your decks grey. I was thinking of doing the same on mine. Gives the boat a commercial / "I mean business" look.

The deck was sprayed with a grey duraliner. The previous boat owner did it, he was a commercial diver, so it saved the deck. Its nice cause it is kinda spongy on the feet too. On really hot days, i do have to wet the deck if i'm barefoot.

Did you spray the gelcoat? The finish looks amazing.

I'm Off - Very nice job! Can you tell me what epoxy, cloth and other materials you used? Did you buy your supplies local or online?

Nice job.
