I have a 1990 Sea Nymph Backtroller 16‘ semi-V fishing boat with a 25hp Suzuki DT25 tiller outboard. The decks have started to rot, carpet is needing to be replaced, etc. I‘m considering, while doing all of this, or converting this to a standup center console style and was hoping some more experienced folks would offer comments on the feasiblity of this kind of endeavor and advice if they‘ve done something similar. Obviously, I‘d have to retrofit the outboard if possible so that I could steer from the console. Depending on practicality of this, I am also willing to replace outboard with a 40hp (hull max rating). Any advice regarding either the idea of retrofitting with a center console or how to go about replacing the decking, during which I intend to rearrange things a bit to provide for more tackle storage, would be greatly appreciated.
