[QUOTE="kfa4303, post: 286993, member: 7274"] Hi Badgger. Small world. I'm right down the road in Tallahassee. While you can certainly add a console, I'm not sure you want/need to. See the other thread in the forum today regarding tiller vs. console for my reasons. Not only do they take up valuable space in a small boat, but they can get a little pricey, even if you get all used components. I run a 14' semi-V tinny with a DIY 1-1/4" thin-walled PVC tiller extender, PVC grab bar and PVC gear shift selector and it's great. I can sit, stand, shift my weight as needed, they don't take up any space and cost less than $5 for both. If you really want a console, you can make it out of just about anything; fiberglass, sealed plywood, a guy here in the forums even made one out of an old aluminum truck tool box. Here's a few pics of rig. Including one at Wakulla Beach. [/QUOTE]
