Mr. E Boat

Here are the glove boxes that will go on the driver and passenger side console bulkhead mounts. They are made for stainless serving trays commonly used by caterers. They had to be cut to fit the edges with a fiber cutting wheel and finish sanded. Hinges were mounted through the pan into wood reinforcements to which the plastic cutting board lid is mounted. Rubber gaskets will surround the perimeter for a water tight seal.

Here is the hydraulic steering helm being positioned slightly left of center in the upside down console shown earlier. This will allow more elbow room and throttle handle access. The white top panel is a plastic cutting board on hinges to cover what will be the glove box.  

Here is more progress on the doors. The bottom picture shows the bath door as seen from what will be the inside of the head. It opens like a regular door but it can split in the middle to increase the square footage for the shower area. The door has been sealed with epoxy and lightly sanded to a semigloss sheen. The cabin door is a basic frame that will have a sliding aluminum window up top and a drop open trap door in the bottom for a small A/C window unit.   

Here are the consoles that were purchased off the internet being cut some more to hang on the bulkhead upside down. Now - that is thinking outside the box. The angled part you see was supposed to be for the steering helm and gauges. Now the angle part is going to be knee clearance for the driver and passenger. The narrow flat area will be where the steering gets mounted. The large hole you see I cut in the bottom picture is for internal cabin access to the back of the consoles. Middle pictures shows reinforcements I installed for a lift up lid and a glove box. 1/4 plywood was cut to fit and glassed in for steering mount. 

This is the driver helm console being cut for access door for storage. There are 2 identical consoles, 1 for each side of the bulkhead. They are standard small flat bottom skiff consoles purchased off the internet and modified to fit.
