Looks good. That will make running back to stick a fish so much easier now.

Go ahead and kill the port side while your at it - open the whole thing up.

Canvas drops that roll up still keep the pilothouse nice and warm in the cold months if you have a bus heater.

Port side will stay. Inside there is a built in tackle station that I def don't want to loose.
There will be a double set of doors very similar to the set up I did on my Parker (pics)
Electronics, gear and other valuables still need to lock it up.
Doing a few more projects also.
-New rudder, newer design that should give me a bit of additional speed, but more importantly better control running at full speed.
Adding more hatches to utilize some unused below deck storage/fish hold/gill net storage.
-New pair of custom scuppers
-Trim tab trick that Maine boat builders do to bring the bow down while underway.

Ronnie,

How about some detail on those custom scuppers. What kind of check are they using to prevent backflow into the cockpit?
