[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 456896, member: 21536"] I think you are on the right track. I would definitely try to retain the existing consoles and windows. You might consider raising the new front deck 9" to a foot or so above the existing floor. That would give you a little more room. So, instead of the current bow deck you would have a walk-through window with a step up to a raised deck -- for fishing. Kind of like the concept in the pic below except you would have a wider gunnel up front, which I think is a good thing for structure as well as potential under gunnel storage. You might consider adding a coaming. This is a popular design these days. If you can pull it off I think it would look good and give your boat the functionality you are looking for.
