[QUOTE="Driftless, post: 504892, member: 34665"] When you drive by the entrance, through woodbridge, get near the center line, then take a moment and smile for me. I beat the snot out of a guy there one night. He very much deserved it. That's the wet cold that goes to your bones. The other seasons were nice tho. Neither of those boats are very big. that's why I'm interested in that layout for mine. Looking at the trailer, I'd say the bottom one is 16'. If you go back and look at the older crestliners, they have their wheelhouse up close to the front and what looks like an 8-10 elevated roof for a little cuddy in it. That's a variation of what I'm looking at. If the seats are going to be up front though, I'm going to have to get comfortable seats w/springs to help absorb any of the wave hits. I don't boat like that but even so, out there 8 hours the unplanned ones can add up. Why not use fittings and pex w/that? Pex is flexible enough to bend it yet stuff enough to make runs with it by itself, like under the deck. Can also use the push fittings with it and provide you do it correctly, they're great. They're approved for behind walls in houses. I'm not putting carpet in another boat I do. marine grade textured vinyl, sheet so no joints. Glue down, so no screws. Yup, a functional space saver. That'd only be if I put the wheel in the middle. if not in the back. [/QUOTE]
