pppppppppppppppppp
I have a 420 renegade and want to fill in the back of the console so I have both some weather protection for and a place to mount a garmin life scope black box to it
it’s not a large piece and havnt measured it yet but would be 600x600 at guess
needs to be solid uv stable and thick enough to take the weight of the black box and also a epirb mount
any recommendations in a plastic based product ?
pppppppppppppppppp
Steve, Seaboard is very easily worked and as Col suggests try your local plastics place.
Thanks for the replies
we have a basic perspex acrylic type place but anything more exotic I going to have to order in from Sydney or Melbourne
will give them a call tomorrow
One thing is certain, do NOT use cutting board from a shop, it will just fall to bits in the weather, there is a few proprietary brands available from boat shops (Sea board, Star board) but most plastics place sell you some, make sure you tell them it's exposed, the material is the stuff wheelie bins, eskies and Polycraft boats are made out of, HDPE I think it's called.
Thanks noelm
you have the stacer side console don’t you ?
just want to fill in the back where your feet go under it
give a bit of protection to the black box and epirb
and keep the wind of the jats crackers during 5 am winter trips
No, mine is a tiller steer, but I know what you mean.
I just used ply and covered it with the same floor carpet on my 440 SC. Looks pretty smart and plenty of strength for a fire extinguisher and epirb.
ppppppppppppppppp
need to pull my finger out and sort this to mount the new sounder

Finally got round to doing this
not sure why the photos are sideways
That looks dangerous Steve what are the chances of a hook coming lose and hitting your face?
It's always possible for a swinging loose hook to get you, but it's no different than being in a rod holder or anywhere else, rods stored that way is common and has been done for decades.
