Test fitting the control box, the seat fits nice and its comfortable, it shall do.

Picked up an access hatch, cut to fit, I’ll mount it when paint is on.

I used Dad’s existing Coosa as the support, back filled with 8lb foam then structural glass/epoxy, I decided to go with the open storage under the seat on the sides with the center closed off, center is the access to the fuel pickup/ sending unit.

Filling/sealing the gauge cluster

Difficult to work on this, and run a buisness at the same time… also, why didn’t anyone tell me this boat stuff is expensive???

The filler, I got most of the way with Epoxy and microbaloons, now were down to the thin body filler and blocks… my arms are already tired.
