Default New dash layout on 32' Sunsation

Pics from the Chicago Boat show.

Here is Sunsations new 32' Dominator's dash layout when you opt for the windshield. Very nice layout IMO. Gotta love those monster gauges

sorry...but i no like... it looks like an afterthought and not very well planned at all... also the panels that the gauges are mounted in interrupt the paint scheme and make it look worse...sorry, just my opinion...

I agree with Sean, looks sorta weird....like he said almost an afterthought. Whats the difference in layout if you opt for not getting the windshield? Cant see it being any different...

Thumbs up

I kinda like it but I'd have to sit behind the wheel first to be sure it's useful. Going to be hard to put a GPS or smartcraft monitor anywhere though. Maybe in the middle.

Wally,
The old(er) style helm layout used the fairing for gauge mounting surfaces. A much nicer look IMHO. As much of a die hard Sunsation fan that I am, can't say I'm all too crazy about the windshield model. I guess that's why they offer two different models.

I like the tach and speedo setup better than the orig, but the rest looks kinda goofy. It looks like they are trying to impress with the number of guages. Maybe if the center pod wasn't stacked and just run straight across, it might look better.

Bayley, i like the original better....looks tougher i guess...and i'm sure if they wanted to they could just put the windshield infront of the Fairing and keep the dash the way it is...but who am i to say when i dont know how the boat is put together...

Cigarette1, i agree....i think it would have looked better straight across and if they got rid of those white panels it would keep the paint lines cleaner. Besides....who needs the hour gauges up front? I'd rather just have themn in the engine compartment next to the engines. But thats me
