I have been struggling with the dash layout. To fit all gauges, plus Garmin 750S sounder/plotter and VHF radio the mock up looked more like that for a 40ft sport fisher. Having to leave ones seat to see over the top of the dash was never going to work. So I have had to compromise on the aesthetics and focus more on the practical aspects. Today we successfully rebuilt it. The face will be covered in carbon fibre. Check out these EGT gauges I will be using.
I have emailed DBRacing for a price on 8 Pyro studs.......
During the dash reconstruction we removed the windscreen to give us better access to the top of the dash. One issue that raised its ugly head was the poor condition of the window/glass rubbers. These need to be replaced. If any one has any suggestions on where I could look for replacements I would be most appreciative.
Next post should have some pictures of the new dash.Wellcraft Nova 230 XL, 300hp Johnson.

That carbon fiber ought to look pretty nice on the dash and the all in one style gauges should help free up some space on the dash. I like it.

Thanks Artie for the well wishes and advice. We have been using West Systems 105 epoxy resin zfor this project. Son Blair has done a lot with carbon so I have left it to him. I understand that he will use the same resin but use a different hardner, Z207 special coatings hardener. We will then use a good quality varnish for extra UV stability. Unfortunately it looks as though the Z207 hasn't been delivered in time for this weekend so I may have to borrow some to allow progress.
I appreciate your advice, I would hate to make a mistake.

Today I got the dash all glued up. This includes the recess for the foot throttle. Took me longer than I had anticipated but good to see it all done. Today I played round with the old windscreen and have now made the decision to build my own. The original screen was available with a teak capping so I have decided to build a complete new screen out of teak. It may make the boat look a little more 70's than 80's. My original plan had been to keep the Nova as original as possible but I guess they never came out with outboards so what the hell.
I will get some photo's up of the dash once I have got it all glassed up.
