1987 CENTER CONSOLE 15; new forward hatch

Postby rwc1973 » Fri Mar 20, 2020 3:10 pm

I am making new wood [components for] a 1987 CENTER CONSOLE 15.

What are the dimensions of the forward storage locker, the one shaped like a trapezoid?

I found the wood locator PDF but it doesn't have that information. I have the roughed out hatch cover, and I need to cut it to size. The boat is somewhere I can't get to it for now. Any help appreciated. --Warren

Take a look at this thread, it has dimensions.

I recommend you rely on your own measurements of your own boat. I wouldn't cut expensive wooden components to size based on someone else's measurements.

The wood locating diagram for a Boston Whaler hull only shows the location of wood or other materials embedded inside the Unibond hull.

Please use the currently active thread about making a replacement forward locker hatch cover for a 15-footer for further inquiries:
