    Welcome to the Forum Hunter.

    That 115 hp O/B motor sounds like a lot of power for your barge - what sort of speed does she do, when cruising and top speed, in her current condition?

    Re a cabin, what size would you like the cabin to be? Would it be within the four pillars shown in the first two photos, or would you want to make it longer?
    Would you keep the existing helm console, or would you move it forward to a corner of the new cabin?
