Dash made by the trim king himself Nick. This boat is no where near square and on some goofy angles. Guy took a few measurements on scratch paper and made this at his house in an hour dropped right in. Guys a wood wizard. Primer got laid down on everything after this dash will be glassed and painted.

the old compass was there. Still deciding how the top will be and if were putting one back in or not.
