Mark42, I talked with you a while ago on your thread. It was as far back as the 1st page I think. Anyway, I finally got enough time to start my pilothouse also. I have been following yours and also followed the x-shark on Classicmako.com. I have had to do quite a few framing tear downs and rebuilds to find something to look good. I think I have finally found something that I like and resembles my new picture. Everything ended up dwarfing the boat because I wanted to stand under it with my present floor. This afternoon, I discovered I won't need my present size gas tank and can lower the floor about like you did. So here's the drawing and I'll try to take pics if I can finish the new frame and get ply on it this weekend. I think I'm going the ply and poly route, for money and ease after reading about your few troubles. I lowered it by at least three inches by going into the fuel tank storage area. Unlike yours, I will make a tee shape...... a walk-in area, and then a standing area in front of my seats. What do you all think of the shape? I hope the proportions end up being like this picture. It seems quite close when looking at it.
