nice outfit but I would think since the OP has a 1985 50' CC, not a new Pershing 80 like you, the 12k Flir and UHD radar MAY be a bit overkill in...
I went with a pair of Garmin 5212's almost 3 years ago when they first came out as well as the garmin radar and a pair of GMI 10's. can'r beat...
nope, not bolted to the wall. I can see the space between the tackle center and the wall. the shelf that forms my initial step out of the salon to...

Thanks! PM sent with my email addy
Did you have a new aluminum top made for your flybridge? if so, can you share the cost of it? I need to get mine redone due to corrosion.
has anyone replaced their ladder treads? Mine are teak and showing signs of better days. I'd like to get the grooved white treads but can't find...
