I tried to find the old thread about this but couldn't...
I am trying to modify my Nav Station - which is a custom stand up unit, which unfortunately blocks access to the quarterberth.
In making a mock-up of the fiberglass that's in my boat - same as normal except the standard nav station seat moulding is not there, it appears that the whole area is very tight. Can someone tell me if the standard nav station is a tight seating arrangement. I am (was) considering putting a rotating rally seat in (much like Evans Starzinger for those familiar) but it's apparent that there's simply no room.
Is the fiberglass pedestal that the standard (and my) nav station stands on structural? Could I perhaps cut away the aft wall - which would make the whole area considerably more roomy?
Is the standard nav station good? Should I being trying to retofit such an arrangement - or do you have other thoughts that you wish you could incorporate in your 37?
Your thoughts appreciated...
