Got the seat online for just $250 (free shipping). Too bad they didn't offer a better color selection, but it's a flip-back seat and the cushion lifts to access the built-in cooler. Found the console with wheel & steering cable on Craigslist for just $70. Then, I convinced the wife that we really NEEDED a new Suzuki 20hp! Now I'm ready to go fishing. :)

[NIcely done! What about a windshield? ] - I'm trying to keep a low profile for playing fish. My glasses should be enough, unless it rains. I do have a bimini though. BTW, painted interior with Tuff-Coat (rubberized) to help lower noise from dropping/bumping stuff inside the boat. After this season, I'll paint the bottom & sides.

That makes sense. If you get tired of eating bugs, I'll show you how to make real simple one.
