    removable console?

    what year or what models have a removable console? Otherwise I have let a few really good boats pass due to having a second console.
    You should know that in bee tending if you don't shut your trap the bees will get out.

    mid 2000's some boats changed to modular consoles. Its pretty much the year that they redesigned them from their 90's design. Post redesign is usually removable. PRO Xl's and SS's though were different.

    Are you just trying to find the oldest boat model X you can get since you want it to be removable or do you have a year/model in mind already?

    2003 and up have “removable” consoles.
    They are bolted/screwed in. Not really a removable console like some of the newer boats have, as it has rough screw holes and rub marks when you remove it.
    But putting in some hole plugs and rubber stick-on mat will fix anything that is there.
