Recessed Footwells

Can I get a rollcall on who would be interested in a pair of recessed footwells as the pic shows? Don't start with "how much are we talking about". Let's start with a basic, yes or no. Dave (GLASDAVE on this site) has done some work on my boat and is a first class glass guy. (would that make him a "FCGG" ?) He could use one of my footwells as a baseline for making a mold. I will call him and see if he wants to make this a wintertime project. I will post this over on the AO and Chris sides to see if there is any further interest.

Count me in for a pair.

Charlie, will these work in our boats? We already have a angle made into the floor. I wonder if they will fit between the angle the dash or if they will be too tall. Can you give a height measurment? Based on the pictures I don't think it will fit. My thoughts were to fab what I needed out of some thin gauge alum and tig it together.

boatless.......
that was the only thing the american offshore modified during the early years... but it was a modified chris craft liner... and I think all they did was remove the gauge kick outs and make it flat... unless the now aluminum gauge panel goes too low.

The Awesome has a different liner than AO/Chris. outside dimensions will be needed for measuring. I may be in if they will fit

These dimensions are the overall, outside flange to outside flange. 14.5" wide 16.5" tall 13.75" deep

The deep dimension does not take into account the laminate thickness. Possible additional of .375" to the 13.75"
