[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 453500, member: 12995"] Lowe has a center console that works well, it was already in my boat when I got it but I ended up moving it forward. Here's a link to some aluminum center consoles https://www.akmccallum.com/store-console.htm but shipping would be the big question. See if you have a dealer near you who would match the price. If you convert to a forward center console, you would need longer control cables, steering cable and possibly battery cables if you decide to move the battery forward like I did. If you take your time and plan it out you can find the cables new for a reasonable price (mostly Ebay). I wouldn't mess with wood, I think it would add too much weight. Here's my Lowe with the center console forward. I had a custom grabrail made and the windshield as well. - [/QUOTE]
