Gary, Check out these door entry units. The min. thickness shown is .31" Using the .25" doors that we spoke about, you could make a spacer to fit between the two assemblies. I prefer a handle unit for a door opener. Had a knob previously and hated them.

Gary, I noticed too what Randy pointed out. Looks like you are adding the "ladies room" on the port side. On the starboard side between the tunnel and the hull side, looks like two additional mini-bulkheads were added aft of the forward main bulkhead. Correct? Love that extra area in the cockpit. One word: PARTYTIME

Richard,you're correct on bulkheads,the small ones will have removeable cushions for storage.in front of main bulk their is another full width bulkhead and small ones in each sponson tips.aft bulk behind bench is doubled up.don't want any issues I've read abouta.those I owe credit to Sparky for.too bad he's so far away now.and on the door handles they're 90 bucks a piece.and non returnable.they are chrome, locking, and in Troy, mi.call me when you can,you also Jeff and anyone else interested in doors.the more we get the cheaper the cost.
