Re: 81 Sea Ray 26 Sedan Bridge I/O to OB Conversion/Restore (Pics)
Sinct the gunwes on the transom are so high and straight across, I am planning several mods:
1) cut transom gunwales down to cockpit deck level on both ends to make doorways to the swim platform
2) remaining center (just over 4') will be a seat with storage for shore power cord (and recepticle), water hose (and shore wster adapter) 2 fenders, and either space for used garbage bags or for snorkling gear (with drainage). This seat will also house the transom shower unit.
Oddly enough, they just put a old 27' Sea Ray much like yours (only in crap condition) right next to my boat. It has the triple hatches. When I see the owner, I take a look in more detail.
Sea ya...
