Author	Topic:   17 Standard rigging tunnel
DavidM	posted 04-13-2015 01:25 PM ET (US)         Several years ago I converted a 1994 17 Standard to a center console. Found out that in 94 the rigging tunnel was in place under the deck, just glassed in. On the 94 there was a cover over the well where the console would be located. I have found a mint 98 Standard and would like to do the same. Issue is that there is no cover/well located forward for the console. Anyone have any info/source to determine if there is a rigging tunnel under the 98 deck?
