Gary1, I would put a "toe kick" in that.

From this view: cut out about 4" from the bottom and about 4" back. (like on your kitchen cabinets at home.)

G/Day Ratrace2,

Mate I thought about doing that but after standing right up against the front of it, I still have plenty of clearence between my feet and the console. To get my toes up against it i have to lean slightly backwards and become off balanced. It's still something I could do later on anyway

OK, I was just thinking that she is going to buck like a horse when you go full throttle, her bow up attitude is going to have you looking for something to grab.

I would have the wheel far enough forward so that I could put my belt buckle against the back part of the console.....

I'm with you, I was looking at adding a couple of grab rails to it when it's completed. A good point on the steering wheel I never thought about that, I will wait till I have the console mounted in the boat with the wheel in as well to figure out the most comfortable spot for them.

thank's Gary
