Finally have some updates. Have changed from double engine hatches to one single. Wanted to have a Cigarette logo on the the hatch pad, difficult with double hatches. More importantly, the engines are now installed. Dan at Archer Marine did a great job.

I’m wanting to use the engine hatch actuator I see on lots of newer guns. The arm looks to be out of aluminum and is actuated by a hydraulic ram. Anyone know where I can buy this? New or used.
Thanks in advance for information.

You can have the Aluminum part fabricated based on your design and hatch pretty easily. As for the ram. A TRS Hydraulic Cylinder and a Drive Pump works Great. Fast, Easy Solution.

So no real updates right now, next step is install of Seateks at Archer. But I am curious and open to any and all thoughts on how this project should progress. Anything from color schemes to cockpit and cabin ideas. It's still an "open canvas" so to speak. Couple things that I'm already pretty set on are no generator, will use "I think" lithium ion house battery with 3000 watt inverter, stay with only new 2 burner electric cooktop, norcold refer, existing a/c heat. I've added a bow thruster. What else should I consider as I wrap things up?
Thanks for your input!
