I have a '79 pontoon boat and the console is "wiggly" due to bottom rot (doncha just hate it when that happens??).
Throttle control is a standard Quicksilver side-mount attached to the right side. Fence mount is also a possibility.
I'd prefer a "minimalist" helm and I'm not a fan of the price or plastic look of the catalog choices. I'm a hobbyist woodworker and can build one--if I have a little nudge on what direction to start.
I'm also open to suggestions on re-purposing something unique as a console.
I've searched Google images for ideas and came up empty but I'm sure plenty of folks have built custom consoles.
Fire away guys--inspire me!
