    Pilot houses

    Hey Guys, I'm looking for a place that fabricates the three sided fiberglass enclosures that we see on many of the small commericial center consoles in the northeast. If anyone can provide me anything that would be great (names, phone numbers,internet sites, or prices) Thanks.

    Not so much chilly Shoe, but I got to fix a big problem I got going with my T-top and Center console. Since I bought the boat bone stock I have built it into a mini battleship. I have installed a 24" raydome, 2 Gps recievers, 10' VHF antena, 15' outriggers, 4 rod holders and many other necessities to my t-top. My problem is that seacraft had the t-top bolted to the center console and not the deck. over the past 2 years of running the boat harder and longer in search of tuna I have manageged to strip and crack the fiberglass around every bolt that holds down the center console to the deck. I have looked into installing backing plates but this would be nearly impossible due to the close proximity of the gas tank. I don't want things to get worse and don't have the money to buy a new boat so I have to look for alternatives to get through the season without loosing my t-top and center console.

    I know this place is in Cali, but figured I would post up anyway. http://pacificpilothouse.com/ I think they put an ad in OTW every month, but I could be wrong. Can't attest to the quality, just seen the name

    Good luck,

    i have seen custom fiberglass do some nice work they are out of hingham ma. not sure of the number but i am sure they can put together what you are looking for, i think some of those cc with enclosed pilot houses are also custom jobs just ask a fabricator in your area and see what they say.
