I have a 2002 518vx I ordered it new in 01. I知 at the point where I need a lot of upgrades or a new boat. I have pretty much decided to keep my boat and do upgrades so the first project is recessed TM tray.
so I知 wondering if anyone out there has the same model and have done this upgrade?
Obviously I知 very nervous to do this.
1. Does cutting a big hole in the deck weaken it at all? I知 240lbs and want it to stay solid. That is my biggest concern.
2. The other is are there any structural things I知 gonna have to cut through to make the tray fit or is it just gonna be chipping foam once I make it thru the deck?
