Re: Open bow conversion
I'm in the middle of making a bowrider out of 28 ft magnum. You shouldn't have any problems as long as you work around the bulkhead. The deck needs to be glassed into the floor by side sections, that is the difficult part. Im in the same situation, to many family members.

I have the Bowrider oin my group, 25' and the crowd allways rides with me. If it is structurally sound, do the conversion. When is the last time any of you under 35' used your cabin???
