Question making a CC into a forward helm.

So here is the scoop. I bought an Alumaweld Super Vee a little while ago and have decided I would like a forward helm with the full windshield. The boat is for sale or trade now but it is GREAT boat and would like to keep it and just do a conversion. Does anyone know of this being done? If so what would something like that run? tried searching google but came up empty handed.

Just means you need to make friends with a welder, and re-route cabling forward.

I would talk to Alumaweld before you play engineer.

How about getting a bimini top and calling it good?

I have tried to get some information from Alumaweld on my boat and got nothing, no reply. Maybe I just didn't send to the right email?

I think we had a recent thread on this regarding Cubsfan with the same dilemma. He sold the tiller jet and got a windshield boat. It's a big job.

if you are in the local westlinn area stop by or give Motion Marine a call at 503-557-1802, we are portlands largest custom and retrofit aluminum boat builders and always modifiyng aluminum boats of all types to customers specs and ideas and will make recommendations on what we can do to further your plans to make the boat conversion you want. Many people dont realize not only do we make one of the finest custom boats on the market but we also build custom aluminum trailers to fit any kind of boat, 100 hr services and motor work or swaps, major and minor insurance repairs, and of course customizing boats for those who arent in the market or cant afford a new boat
