    203 Consoles

    Going to rebuild the floor in my 1999 203 as I have been nursing a few soft spots the last year or so. Going to skip carpet and use something else that wont hold water. I am also curious as to whether I could cut the consoles and turn them into the “floating” style that the newer boats got? Any ideas?

    It would be a lot of work being they are part of the top cap. The later "floating" consoles are attached down on the side and front. You can see the attach points below.

    You dont want to mess with the consoles since they are built in.
